connected() no returning correct state

Question

Hi,

I noticed that if server drops connection
and you use client.connected() it returns true.

How can I be sure that client is connected to server?

Answer 1

Hi,

So best way to check if connection is open,
is to use noOperation() method and if it throws
exception reconnect to server....

Answer 2

Yes, to be absolutely sure it is best to try an operation such as this.

Clients only really know if a server has gone away if they are reading or writing the socket that connects them.
