为 C++ gRPC 异步服务器中的丢失连接提供什么通知

Question

I have an async gRPC server for Windows written in C++. I'd like to detect the loss of connection to a client – whether a network connection is lost, or the client crashes, etc. I see references to the keepalive channel arguments, and I've tried various combinations of those settings, such as:

builder.AddChannelArgument(GRPC_ARG_KEEPALIVE_TIME_MS, 10000);
builder.AddChannelArgument(GRPC_ARG_KEEPALIVE_TIMEOUT_MS, 10000);
builder.AddChannelArgument(GRPC_ARG_KEEPALIVE_PERMIT_WITHOUT_CALLS, 1);
builder.AddChannelArgument(GRPC_ARG_HTTP2_MIN_RECV_PING_INTERVAL_WITHOUT_DATA_MS, 9000);
builder.AddChannelArgument(GRPC_ARG_HTTP2_BDP_PROBE, 1);

I've done some testing with a streaming RPC method. If I kill the client process and then try to send data to the client, the lost connection is detected. I don't actually even have to send data. I can set an Alarm object to trigger immediately and that causes the call handler to be cancelled. However, if I don't try to send data (or set an alarm) after killing the client process then there's no notification or callback that I've been able to find/enable. I must not have a complete understanding. So:

1. How does the detection of a lost connection manifest itself for the server? Is there a callback method, or notification of some type? My server doesn't receive any errors; the completion queue's 'Next()' method never returns, etc.
2. Does this detection work for both unary (call/response) and streaming methods?
3. Does the server detection of a lost connection work whether or not the client has implemented lost connection / keepalive logic?
4. Is there some method besides the keepalive channel arguments that is preferred?

Thanks - any help is appreciated.

You can use ServerContext::AsyncNotifyWhenDone() to get a notification when the request has been cancelled.
