[rabbitmq-discuss] Cathing broker shut down in a consumer

[CJ]

I need to write an exception in the case of a broker shutdown to end my 
programs gracefully

In the Sender, I used the following code successfully:
 
    while ( numMsgs < maxMsgs ) {
      try { channel.basicPublish( exchange, queueName, 
            (persistEnabled) ? MessageProperties.PERSISTENT_TEXT_PLAIN : 
null,
            message.getBytes()); }
      catch (Exception ex) {
         System.out.println("--- Connection Broken ---");
      }
 
This catches the IOException and termiates gracefully on the Sender.
I can NOT do this on the consumer, where I get the following error once the 
broker is shut down
I do not seem to be able to catch the problem of the broker coming down in 
the consumer.  I use the following code on the nextDelivery
 
      catch (ShutdownSignalException ex) {
         System.out.println("--- Broker Shut Down ---");
      }
      catch (Exception ex) {
         System.out.println("--- Broker Shut Down ---");
      }
 
But I get the following error:
 
Exception in thread "main" com.rabbitmq.client.ShutdownSignalException: 
connecti
on error; reason: {#method<connection.close>(reply-code=320, 
reply-text=CONNECTI
ON_FORCED - broker forced connection closure with reason 'shutdown', 
class-id=0,
 method-id=0), null, ""}
        at 
com.rabbitmq.client.QueueingConsumer.handle(QueueingConsumer.java:198
)
        at 
com.rabbitmq.client.QueueingConsumer.nextDelivery(QueueingConsumer.ja
va:227)
        at Recv.main(Recv.java:50)
 
Does Rabbit support catching broken connections in the consumer ?

How can I do this ?
