Timeout problems
Dear developers,
I'm developing a simple DB Client application. This application establishes a connection to a remote DB with a TADOConnection component.
But, sometimes, the remote server is down, so that my application freezes for 30 seconds before raising an exception.
That's a very bad behavior. Is there a way to "cancel" the connection attempt. I tried making the connection asynchronous and stopping it with Cancel method, but doing this way the connection is always "apparently successful" even if it is not.
I can't understand how can I make my program wait for that connection to be established while permitting the user to STOP this connection attempt. What is the most efficient way? Are there any components which help me to connect to a MySQL server in a more safe way (i.e. providing a "Cancel" button)?
Thank you in advance.
