[rabbitmq-discuss] Channel.basicPublish to a non-existent exchange does not throw

Mon Oct 21 21:26:45 BST 2013

Yea, racy indeed. I actually don't think we need to wait on a
ShutdownListener since the basicPublish will eventually fail with
AlreadyClosedException. That's fine as long as the Connection isn't
shutdown as a result, which Steve mentioned in another thread
(AlreadyClosedException always sets hardError...) is what should happen but
which I haven't seen. Since I don't really have a fair chance to know that
the Channel has been closed before getting an AlreadyClosedException,
ideally the Connection wouldn't be closed as a result.
