Gracefully disconnect standalone .NET adapters

[DarioCrivelli]

Hi Robert,

yes, at the moment there is no recovery for interruptions in the event flow. The Server is just closed.
However, this limitation applies to the Proxy Adapter, which is a basic adapter for the management of remote .NET based feeds and which reacts to interruptions in the event flow by invoking a failure on the Server.
A sophisticated adapter could manage an interruption in the event flow and restore the flow in some way, or, maybe, send some meta-information to the clients.

If your system is based on several external event flows and you need to preserve working ones upon interruption of other ones, then our basic remoting infrastructure may be too limited.
Since a single connection to Lightstreamer Server can only specify a single Data Adapter, could using different Server instances for different adapters be a workaround?

Right. Thanks.
So I guess one have to set up several phsyical server boxes to do so. At least to be able to run on the same port. Am I right?

it is right in logical terms; you need to distinguish different servers by different addresses, as you probably wouldn't want to distinguish them by different ports.
In physical terms, I think that various approaches are available to achieve this, but I prefer not to speculate on this.
