When the EventSink is closed after send several events with the following resource method , should EventSource reconnect automatically?
@GET
@Path("/closeAfterSent")
@Produces(MediaType.SERVER_SENT_EVENTS)
public void eventStream(@Context SseEventSink eventSink, @Context Sse sse) throws Exception {
System.out.println("entering eventStream()");
ExecutorService pool = Executors.newCachedThreadPool();
OutboundSseEvent.Builder builder = sse.newEventBuilder().mediaType(MediaType.APPLICATION_XML_TYPE);
pool.execute(new Thread()
{
public void run()
{
try (SseEventSink sink = eventSink)
{
System.out.println("sending 3 events");
eventSink.send(builder.data("thing1").build());
eventSink.send(builder.data("thing2").build());
eventSink.send(builder.data("thing3").build());
System.out.println("sent 3 events");
}
}
});
}
In EventSource api doc, it says EventSource will reconnect after connection loss or missing events. Should we add some clarification for this situation ? I know Firefox or Chrome's EventSource will automatically reconnect after event sink is closed. Should jaxrs' EventSource do the same ?
