Hello Tim, I tried the test using version */3.4.0/* of ActiveMQ-CPP and the problem remains the same. The connection factory creates a connection even if there is no broker running, and I've set the parameters to not try forever. Then when start is invoked on the connection it blocks until the broker is started.
Moreover, as a debugging attempt, I tried without the default failover settings (infinite waits, etc). It appears that the initial behavior for connecting to the broker isn't working correctly, in that it does not appear to honor the startupMaxReconnectAttempts value. Or, I'm doing something wrong. Suggestions?
