I have a ND+2 with the latest beta firstware installed. I have my app working great except it hangs at least a few times a day. It's all related to the timeouts with Sockets.
I've seen on a few posts on the forum that mention this issue...
[color=rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;]... i have also found out that there are no Connection [/color][font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif;background-color:#FFFF00;color:#FF0000;font-size:14px;"]Timeout[/font][color=rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;] on "Dns.GetHostEntry("api.pachube.com")" and the "[/color][font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif;background-color:#FFFF00;color:#FF0000;font-size:14px;"]Socket[/font][color=rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;].Connect()" - So what you are facing is the [/color][font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif;background-color:#FFFF00;color:#FF0000;font-size:14px;"]timeout[/font][color=rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;] problem, (seems like it), because it stops printing out your debug information, but i could be wrong.[/color]
The only way i can find to fix the problem is to create a watchdog that need to be triggered after "new Socket(..)" - But that’s not a solution, it’s just a work around and the problem will still exist
Do we have an update on when a true solution will be found? I'm guessing that's something that should be put in the netmf code?
In the mean time... A "watchdog" is the solution that I've seen brought up. I'm a bit confused on what that is and how to implement it.
What other solutions have people been using to stop the hang from happening?
Thanks!
