[jboss-user] [Remoting] - Re: Race condition in ConnectionValidator

I think what you're seeing is due to the fact that the socket transport uses a connection pool. If you shut down the server gracefully, the client should detect that existing connections are stale, and the next invocation by ConnectionValidator should get a new connection to the new server and, since the invocation succeeds, there's no notification. But the JBM client should experience the same behavior. Are you actually seeing a case where "the client's JMS connection listener does not get called yet the connection is invalid" ? By the way, I have a couple of problems with your proposed fix.
