Subject IBS_Base more questions...

Hi!

Really sorry to be such a PITA on this one. But I have come up with one
more thing that confuses me.

I have done a small test case with a simple stored procedure that is
getting prepared in the cnAfterConnect event and being executed *and*
committed in the DoServiceItems function.

After shutting down the database the thread sleeps as it should. Then,
when I bring the database online at the second execution of
DoServiceCanSleep the IsWaiting parameter is set.

This happens when ProcessPassiveTasks is called on the *transaction* via
the session in the service loop.

In TIB_Transaction.ProcessPassiveTasks all the OAT stuff is skipped and
we are ending up here

<code>
if not IsWaiting then
IsWaiting := Started;
</code>

the thing with these two lines is that IsWaiting never gets resetted. I
can of course reset IsWaiting in the DoServiceCanSleep by checking the
Started property of the transaction.

Should I do that?

Regards,

BTW I had to change the exception handling in IBS_Base.pas in order for
the service to detect a failed connection and setting the KillCon flag
properly.
