Catch-up missed messages

问题

As far as my understanding goes, when a message is published to a topic, it is received by only the clients currently subscribed to that topic. If a client turns up after the message is published, it won't receive that message.

Suppose a client is disconnected momentarily, is there a way to help the client catch-up with the messages missed when it is connected again?

Thanks

回答1:

If a client subscribes to a topic then the connection to the broker is dropped, the client will need to reconnect.

As long as client sets the cleanSession=false flag on the connection and resubscribes to the same topics the broker should replay any missed messages.
