SocketConnector timeout cannot be configured

[agherardi]

Hi,
Even though method tryToConnect in SocketConnector.java (see https://github.com/hazelcast/hazelcast/blob/master/hazelcast/src/main/java/com/hazelcast/nio/tcp/SocketConnector.java) takes a connection timeout parameter as input, that parameter is hard-coded to 0 - i.e., use OS default timeout - for IPv4 addresses and to 3,000 milliseconds for IPv6 addresses.

Therefore, there is currently no way to change the socket connect timeout via a configuration property.

Is this by design?

Thanks.

Hi,
I saw that you marked this as an Enhancement. Does it mean that you agree that adding a socket connect timeout configuration property is a good idea?

Until the enhancement is implemented, is there a workaround?
