Hello, I'm currently trying to implement a simulation program with Kamaelia and need a reliable TCP connection to a data server.
>From Twisted, I know that a method is called if the connection fails by whatever reason. I tried to get the same results with Kamaelia's TCPClient component. If I start up the component and try to connect to a closed TCP port it fails and sends a message out of the signal box, that's okay. But if the connection attempt succeeds and, after some time, the server drops the connection with full TCP handshake (FIN, FIN+ACK, ACK), the component just hangs and does nothing. Is this by design, or could there be an error in my setup? Also, how long does a TCPClient component live -- or how can/should I terminate it explicitly? I'm afraid that if I create a "ReconnectingTCPClient" component, it could eat up memory over long runtime with hanging TCPClients.
