TDAAlerter

[binfch]

I am using the Alerter class:

Code: Select all

  lPgAlerter := TPgAlerter.Create(nil);
  with lPgAlerter do begin
    OnEvent := @AlerterEvent;
    AutoRegister := False;
    Connection := lPgConnection;
    Events := lAlerterChannel;
    Active := True;
  end;

When lPgConnection goes down/crashes, I am using an "OnConnectionLost" handler with:

Code: Select all

  RetryMode := rmReconnectExecute;

But this does not recover the Alerter channel/connection. Is there an option that automatically re-establish the Alerter channel/connection?

Thx & cheers,
Peter

Hello.

For the time being, TPgAlerter has no functionality for automatic restoring. To restore PgAlerter channel, you should directly invoke TPgAlerter.Stop / TPgAlerter.Start .

Hi.

how to determine which connections of successful recovered after the break. Is there any event, like OnConnectionRestored?

[DemetrionQ]

Hello.

After restoring connection, the TPgConnection.AfterConnect event occurs. You can use a procedure associated with it, in order to perform the required operations when restoring connection.

Hi there

Is this issue resolved in the latest release 4.0.2? If not, when will it be fixed?

Thx & cheers,

Hello,

It's not a bug - it's a new functionality, we have added it to our roadmap, however, we cannot say the exact timing of its implementation

[binfch]

Thx Alex for the answer

Hopefully you can push this functionality up in your roadmap. We are using the Alerter component extensively in our software and the connection recovery feature would really help us a lot.

Thx & cheers,

Hello,

The main feature of the next version will be the support for RAD Studio XE5, therefore this feature will hardly be implemented in the next version, it will probably be implemented in a version following the next version

Alex

Is this feature now finally implemented, as promised?

Thanks & cheers,
P.

[AlexP]

Hello,

No, this feature is not yet implemented

Thx & cheers,

Hi there

What do I have to do to at least get a reliable deadline for my request?

Thanks,
Peter

[AlexP]

These features are included to our PgDAC development roadmap, however, their implementation is not planned for the nearest future.

[binfch]

Unbelievable, you guys should really convert to become bloody politicians!

Thanks & cheers,
