emitWithAck does not throw on disconnect #4964

I could indeed reproduce, thanks for the test case. I'm digging into this. Related: socketio/socket.io-client#1546 |

Previously, getting disconnected while waiting for an acknowledgement
would create a memory leak, as the acknowledgement was never received
and the handler would stay in memory forever.
This commit fixes the issue:
- handlers that do accept an error as first argument, such as:
* `socket.emit("test", (err, value) => { ... })` with `ackTimeout` option
* `socket.timeout(5000).emit("test", (err, value) => { ... })`
* `const value = await socket.emitWithAck("test")`
will now properly resolve with an error and get discarded.
- handlers that don't like `socket.emit("test", (value) => { ... });`
will simply be discarded upon disconnection
Note: the structure of the 'acks' attribute has been left untouched, in
order to prevent any breaking change.

This should be fixed by socketio/socket.io-client@34cbfbb, included in version 4.7.5. @jd1378 could you please check? |

Describe the bug
Take the following steps:
emitWithAckto send a message immediatelyemitWithAckto throw on disconnect, but it does notemitWithAckstill not resolving.To Reproduce
Socket.IO client and server version:
4.7.4I used the socket.io chat example to make a reproduction repo:
https://github.com/jd1378/socketio-emit-ack-bug
Expected behavior
I expect the
emitWithAckto throw once the socket is disconnected. OR, I expectemitWithAckto retry the request, as it's not volatile.Platform:
Additional context
What's even better than the expected behavior? a new option to control the behavior.
what I really want is to be able to detect the failure of my requests and throw, much like how a fetch request would throw if connection fails. and I don't want to retry the request automatically when it's thrown.
