hi, i've tried to find some propper way to clase a SSE connection, does anyone know how to do it?
My BE allows only 5 parallel connections per customer, so its crucial to close connection as soon as user does not need it any more (leaves a chat screen for example). I have function like this (snippet below). But even after leaving "chat" screen, i still can debug events in OkHttpSSESession#onEvent

The SSE spec indicates that a client will attempt reconnection unless the server sends a HTTP 204:

Have you tried calling the cancel method on an ClientSSESession instance?

@Aleksei Tirman [JB], yeah, i updated my code like in screenshot#1. When i call disconnect() - when leaving a screen (log "_DEF-4305chatdisconnect"_ is printed as expected), OkHttpSSESession receives 8 events in onEvent (i'm sure its because of definition in OkHttpSSESession):

private val _incoming = Channel<ServerSentEvent>(8)

But what is never called - is OkHttpSSESession#onClosed. It's a little bit suspicious.

Its a screenshot of OkHttpSSESession (ktor version 3.1.1) i refer to.

Can you please share a sample code snippet as text to reproduce the problem?
