Currently when using
ping
the response is swallowed which makes it not particularly useful. This PR adds a flagping_response_received
to the client which is set toTrue
if a response has been received inwait_msg
. I've been using this approach in a personal project without any issues and it's not particularly invasive so I wanted to propose it as a solution to #332.Another possible approach is to actually respond in
wait_msg
with an actual ping response however I'm not certain how that would interact with subscriptions and those currently usingwait_msg
so this approach was taken in order to not be breaking while still being useful.
