How to keep retrying when server is down?

Hello,

I'd like the client keep retrying to reconnect without stop, for example retry every 2 minutes.

Using Ice.RetryIntervals can only retry a limited times.

What can we do to implement this?

Thanks

Hi,

Yes, you can't specify an infinite number of retries with Ice.RetryIntervals. You'll have to implement the retry yourself, for example:

while(true)
{
     try
     {
          proxy->sayHello();
          break;
     }
     catch(const Ice::CommunicatorDestroyedException&)
     {
          throw;
     }
     catch(const Ice::LocalException&)
     {
          IceUtil::ThreadControl::sleep(IceUtil::Time::seconds(2));
     }
}

Cheers,
Benoit.
