Can anyone help refresh my memory on how to setup a /dev/null thread? I did this years ago and have no recollection! Do I setup an actual route and call it /dev/null and then set the detail to raw?
You set up thread with Protocol-File, and for its filename for output /dev/null (which may be the default). This will have the effect of sending all your messages to the big bit bucket in the sky! 😀
You still need a destination to create a route. There is another option. You could put hcitpsmsgkill in a Proc for a raw route to any destination thread.
Lately, when i try to use the /dev/null solution in 5.8 on Linux, I get messages piling up on the outbound thread. They won’t ever go to the “bit bucket”. Anyone else have that problem?
Make sure that you don’t have ‘Await Replies’ turned on for the thread. Otherwise, your thread is waiting for a reply that will never come, which is probably why the messages are queueing up.
