Ideally, I'd be able to provide my main program with a s= ocket connection that would be able to go through a list of potential targe= ts for connection and then, if the socket died unexpectedly, try to reach t= he next potential target. It has to ultimately use a TCP socket and no I c= an't use a JMS server product--but maybe a single part of the library. I s= aw something similar to what I want for c# at http://www.codeproject.com/Ar= ticles/20106/Failover-Socket-Client and I thought that I'd ask around and s= ee if there was some cool library that I just didn't know about. Cheers, Me
