[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HBX-890) Invalid database connection properties causes Eclipse to crash

[Max Rydahl Andersen (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HBX-890?page=comments#action_26185 ] 

Max Rydahl Andersen commented on HBX-890:
-----------------------------------------

hang where and when ?

The problem is that there is no standard/comon way of telling jdbc drivers to gracefully timeout; so the only thing we can do is to spawn another thread that then might be waiting/running for a long time.

To do that I need to know where and when you bumped into the issue (since we already spawn most things asynchronous)

> In this case the hibernate.connection.url was the issue.  I had been using "jdbc:postgresql://localhost:<port>/<db>", but that caused Eclipse to crash because that just hangs.
> The proper syntax, for the way I've exposed my postgres installation, is one of the following:
> 1)  jdbc:postgresql://<hostname>:<port>/<db>
> 2) jdbc:postgresql://<ip_address>:<port>/<db>
> If there was an explicit timeout for the connection attempt, and then a graceful handling of that timeout, Eclipse wouldn't have to die.
