<font face="arial" size="2"><p style="margin:0;padding:0;">I couldn't agree more ;) this is very odd and extremelly annoying ;)</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;">While the client wait() is well, waiting, the device receives incoming messages - so there is a connection and the heartbeat is running normally and happily.</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;">As this only happens on a slow connection (3G) and intermittently I am working on the assumption that the reply has been sent but has been dropped somewhere... really stretching it there, but I can't seem to find any other explanaition as exchangeDeclare creates new exchanges 100% of the time but only returns a OK "some of the time".... sigh...</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;">BTW, In the Javadocs there is an Exchange.Declare with a nowait boolean :</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;">AMQImpl.Exchange.Declare(int ticket, java.lang.String exchange, java.lang.String type, boolean passive, boolean durable, boolean autoDelete, boolean internal, boolean nowait, java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object> arguments)</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;">However, this option is not available in the 2.8.1 or 2.8.6 .jar files or source files... can anyone tell me if this overide is in a nightly build and/or if it's irrelevant to the task at hand?</p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;"> </p>
<p style="margin:0;padding:0;">thanks all,</p>

If the exchange.declare-ok doesn't make it back to <br />the client then neither should heartbeats. Missed heartbeats ought to <br />result in the client library tearing down everything associated with the <br />connection and release any threads waiting for replies.<br /><br />Matthias.</p>
