OK, found a few problems. #1 is that the client broker URL should be
String brokerUrl =
"discovery:(multicast://default?group=test)?maxReconnectAttempts=2";
#2 is that it appears the discovery agent isn't started until the first
connection attempt and the connection attempt does not in any way wait for
the discovery agent to be started before trying to connect, so the 2
reconnection attempts pass before the discovery agent discovers the broker.
#3 is definitely a bug. If I use
String brokerUrl =
"discovery:(multicast://default?group=test)?maxReconnectAttempts=30&initialReconnectDelay=1000&useExponentialBackOff=false";
the connection still fails, and in far less than the 30 seconds that should
be necessary to do 30 attempts with a 1000 ms (= 1 second) delay between
attempts. To get a connection I need to have at least 10 reconnect attempts
and set useExponentialBackOff=true.
