Post From: iqfeed internet disconnection and backfill issue

Hi folks,

Several days ago, I point out a backfill problem during iqfeed lost its connection. I do notice that in the newest version 1047, you upgrade to millisecond timestamp and try to fix that problem along with other issues. Thank you for your effort. However, the same problem persist. Today, I simply unplug and replug my internet cable to mimic a small internet disruption, and the iqfeed would leave that small gap in between. Then I realize that the sierrachart status bar stay green even during the internet disruption which means SC have never seen this disruption althrough the following message being sent to the message log:
IQ feed reports external connection is now Not Connected. | 2013-11-18 09:39:12
IQ feed reports external connection is now Not Connected. | 2013-11-18 09:39:13
IQ feed reports external connection is now Not Connected. | 2013-11-18 09:39:14
IQ feed reports external connection is now Not Connected. | 2013-11-18 09:39:15
IQ feed reports external connection is now Connected after it was previously lost. Downloading missing historical data. | 2013-11-18 09:39:16
That's why NO backfill was actually triggered after the iqfeed is reconnected.

So I think that to really fix this problem, you need to let SC change that status bar to "not connected" then "connecting" when this message-"IQ feed reports external connection is now Not Connected." being sent from iqfeed. Then I think the backfill will be triggered.
