I am using the ActiveMQConnectionFactory and it appears that the factory blocks when creating a connection if the configured host can't be reached. I would like the initial connection to timeout after a set period but I can't seem to get the timeout to work. I have configured 0 reconnect attempts as I am only currently interested in the initial connection. I set ".setCallTimeout(100)", which if I understand correctly should timeout after 100ms, however this doesn't happen. I read through the documentation but I couldn't find any other properties I could set to configure the timeout. Is there such a property? And how do I timeout this initial connection attempt?
I started by starting a Artemis docker container and ran my application which was able to successfully, and immediately, establish the connection. I verified this via the Artemis admin console. I then stopped my application and the docker container. I then started only my application, but not the container. My application appears to hang for around 36 seconds before finally continuing on. If I then stop my application and start my application again (with the docker container still stopped) I then hangs for only around 7 seconds before continuing on. Any subsequent restart of my application hangs for between 4 and 7 seconds usually. Each of these times I am restarting my entire application not just trying a new connection attempt from an existing ActiveMQConnectionFactory. I find this to be very odd that the amount of time it hangs changes. I would think each run of the application should reproduce similar results every time when the container is stopped. It could be due to how docker handles connections, but this is beating around the bush. The "setCallTimeout" I set to 100 should have timed out after 100ms regardless of what else was going in the background. So it is confusing to me why the connection is waiting for 36 seconds before continuing. I have determined that the wait is caused by this line: "activeMQConnectionFactory.createConnection();". Could you please tell me what is going on here, or if I simply configured the wrong property? Thanks, Tom This message is marked Public.
