Post From: Handling IB API server disconnect - please help

IB API should be having a relevant error/warning message code - would be really great to add another constant SCS_apiDISCONNECTED based on it.

There is no chance in 1,000,000,000,000 years we are going to do something like this. We are not going to do a Mickey Mouse solution and we are not going to give in to Mickey Mouse interfaces like the TWS API is.

What Interactive Brokers needs to do is one of the following:
-Disconnect the API client
-Immediately reject the order because it cannot be accepted during the server disconnect
-Immediately accept the order and put it into a Pending Open state.
