Title: Race Condition: Incorrect AbortController Status Check During Tab Visibility Changes
Description
Bug Report
When rapidly switching browser tabs with openWhenHidden: false
, the error handling logic incorrectly checks the abort status of a new request instead of the aborted one, leading to unnecessary retries.
Steps to Reproduce
- Create an EventSource connection with
openWhenHidden: false
- Quickly switch to another tab and back
- Observe the network requests in DevTools
Current Behavior
- Initial request (A) starts with AbortController instance A
- Tab becomes hidden -> Controller A's abort() is called
- Tab becomes visible -> New request (B) starts with Controller B
- Request A's error handler executes but checks Controller B's status
- Since Controller B is not aborted, it triggers unnecessary retry
Expected Behavior
The error handler should check the abort status of the controller that initiated the request, not the current global controller instance.
Technical Details
The issue occurs because:
curRequestController
is shared across async contexts- Error handling happens asynchronously after the controller reference has changed
- This leads to checking the wrong controller's abort status
Impact
- Unnecessary network requests
- Incorrect error handling
- Potential performance issues with rapid tab switching
Environment
- Browser: All major browsers
- Package Version: v2.0.1 (Latest version)
- OS: All platforms
Suggested Fix
Store the AbortController instance in function scope to ensure error handling uses the correct instance for status checking.
