Subject TIB_Connection Losing Connection, more problems
Author Infocare Developer
Still on this same issue i have not btw solved the previous issue, if you
will recall, i have found it merely impossible to reconnect an ibo
connection once it is lost, even after cancelling and closing all
transactions, the ibo connection still wants to write something to the
connection on close, not even forcedisconnect works, or Connected := false.
I have even tried to Free the IBO Connection Components and replacing them
with new instances, this works but causes memory leaks with the IBO
connection components not freeing since it raises an exception on destroy
trying to "write" to the connection, not a clean solution

so the only alternative was to periodiacally check the connection by calling
VerifyConnection, If this fails it waits 1 sec and then retries another 2
times, if it does not verify all 3 times, the server's process is terminated
and restarts itself, this seemed to work, but

Whenever quite a few queries are run the server seems to keep restarting,
it's as if verifyconnection does not work if something is busy with the
connection.

What does veryifyconnection do? and how reliable is it? and if a query is
busy running over the connection and data is being received or something,
will verifyconnection return false?
