[Quickfixj-users] Detect if a session has been logged out for too long

[Chris B. <cbl...@gm...>]

I'm looking for a way to detect when my initiator app loses its connection
to the acceptor for an extended period of time without being able to
reconnect.

I can see the disconnect happen in the onLogout callback, but that happens
immediately and I want to give quickfix a chance to reconnect before I
start automatically creating trouble tickets. I can start a thread when
onLogout happens and wait for a while, but when I check the session's
status with isLoggedOn it always returns "true". I even checked it
immediately after entering onLogout, but it's still "true".

Is there some other way to check the logon status of a session?
