Replication, binlogreader: "connection was bad"

[shlomi-noach]

While using binlogreader, as in:

... = binlogReader.binlogSyncer.RegisterSlave(connectionConfig.Key.Hostname, uint16(connectionConfig.Key.Port), connectionConfig.User, connectionConfig.Password)
...
<time passes>
...
ev, err := this.binlogStreamer.GetEvent()

I get a non nil err, which says "connection was bad"

This happens when enough time passes for the connection to invalidate. I'm trying to figure out if there is support for the equivalent MASTER_CONNECT_RETRY, MASTER_RETRY_COUNT, such that I would be able to configure the connection to retry as much as I want, with as small interval that I want.

I haven't figured this out yet -- is there such support?

Kind regards

Hi @shlomi-noach, sorry that I have no time to support this , but it seems easy to do, you can send me a PR if you want to fix quickly.
If not, I will try to see it next week.

@siddontang thank you; at this time I have application-side workaround that works, so this is not a priority for me either. I was mostly wondering if this exists that I haven't noticed.

From a first quick look I'm actually unsure where I would be adding this - but if I figure it out I'd be happy to PR.
