I noticed that the default timeout response was changed from one

change. We have run into a situation when we issue a subscribe
command but never get a response. With the MAX_INT timeout, the
program hangs. I was thinking about resetting the response timeout to
one minute but wanted to make sure that this would not cause
additional problems.
Thanks, David Robison
Why is the response not returning?
client --> subscribe --> xmlBlaster
<--- subscribeReturnQos <--
is it xmlBlaster which is not responding?
I think the first step is to track down the reason for the missing
response.
We have introduced the MAX_INT mainly for callbacks. If the callback
carries
a huge message over a modem (taking for example half a day)
it may cause a ping to be blocked which in turn aborts the transfer
and the callback dispatcher goes to polling.
Then it is retried again, fails again and so on.
This situation is not this critical anymore as the current xmlBlaster
detects the bytes transfered and ommits the ping if bytes travel over
the socket.
Yes, i would say you can reduce the MAX_INT in your case,
