ConnectionResponse Error

[Kuber Joshi]

I had developed a windows application using C# (.Net). When my server is running and i use the connect method the ConnectionResponse event handler gives me response as Successful (true) but, when my server is stopped and i use the connect method the Connectionresponse event handler doesnt give me any response, it should give Successful (false).

I am using Electroserver5.dll version 5.4.4499.16143.

Please suggest.

Are you connecting over TCP or HTTP?

edit: I found an existing ticket about this problem. There's a second ticket specifically for HTTP that says that ConnectionAttemptResponse returns success if the ES5 is down, but that it works for TCP.

A workaround in either case is to set a timer. If you do not get a ConnectionResponse of any kind before the timer goes off, then the connection fails.
