connection_idle_time is not working

[beibei198918]

Describe the problem I used connection pool: pool_options.connection_idle_time = std::chrono::milliseconds(1000*10); After executing the command, the connection was idle for 2422 seconds, but netstat still checked and the connection was not disconnected. What is the problem?

Environment:

• OS: ubuntu
• Compiler: gcc 4.8.5
• hiredis version: v1.2.0 , master
• redis-plus-plus version: 1.3.12, master, commit fe6e72f

Additional context Here is the relevant code: sw::redis::ConnectionOptions connection_options; connection_options.host = "x.x.x.x"; connection_options.port = 6379; connection_options.password = "aaaa"; connection_options.socket_timeout = std::chrono::milliseconds(200);

sw::redis::ConnectionPoolOptions pool_options;
pool_options.size = 10;
pool_options.wait_timeout = std::chrono::milliseconds(100);
pool_options.connection_idle_time = std::chrono::milliseconds(1000*10);

sw::redis::Redis redis(connection_options,pool_options);

redis-plus-plus does not have a background thread to close these idle connections. Instead, it reconnects the connection when you use it to send a command.

So, the next time, you send some command with an idle connection, redis-plus-plus will close it, and create a new connection to send your command.

Is there a way to reduce idle connections？

You can config Redis server to make it close idle connections. Check the timeout config in redis.conf:

# Close the connection after a client is idle for N seconds (0 to disable)
timeout 0

Since there's no update, I'll close this issue.
