Having Network Directories in DataFinder That Don't Hang When Network is Disconnected

Status: Completed

Having network directories available in the DataFinder is a great tool. However, if a network directory is added as a default search locations AND the network cable is unplugged, DIAdem will hang for a very long period of time. Windows commands are used to query for network locations. If not connected to the network, the timeout for these commands is quite large. 

 

While this is technically expected behavior, it is not ideal software functionality to hang if a network cable is unplugged.

This issue should have been fixed with version 2011 of DIAdem and DataFinder Server Edition.

If the problem still exists it would be cool to get more details regarding the circumstances.
