All rtags operations start to fail after few minutes

[dawiddr]

I start rdm manually, then I run Atom. Everything works as expected – I can jump to symbol definitions, etc. – but only for few minutes. Then all operations start to fail. There's no error notification in Atom, but I can see that some errors are logged in console:

rdm still runs fine, but it receives no commands from Atom. When I run rc from command line, I still get results. After I restart Atom, everything works again.

My environment:
Ubuntu Linux 16.04
atom-rtags-plus 1.4.0
rtags 2.8

Thanks for the report. I haven't seen this myself, but ill take a go at reproducing it.

I haven't been able to reproduce this myself, however I have tried to make the error handling in this area a little more robust. In the next update (1.4.1) you should see an error when the issue occurs. It would be great if you could get a feel for what triggers this and I can try to fix it for real.

After your changes I don't encounter this problem anymore, but nor I can see any error notifications. Maybe that was something specific to my platform. In any case, thank you for your help and all the work on this great plugin!
