How To Change Connect Timeout

Synapse library using sockets in blocking mode. But blocking call of Connect not have any timeout. Timeout for Connect is hardcoded in communication stack of your operating system.

Any timeout property in Synapse cannot define timeout for connecting of TCP channel. It is not a bug, it depending on design of used socket API.

Exists two possible workarounds:

• Call Connect in non-blocking mode. (ugly…)
• Raise helper thread and after timeout try to close socket handler from this thread. (it is ugly too…)
