Yes, in the current implementation the abort only is executed when the library is suppose to do something. It checks that flag and aborts. But if a connection was requested, the library just waits for a callback, either with state connected or an error, before taking any action.

Is there any way, that the callback is executed earlier?

Let's call it a feature request. Unfortunately, I have no time to implement it at the moment, so you'll have to wait. But as the priority for this is very low, I don't think we can fix it in 2020, unless I'm done with all other tasks. Sorry for that.

Hi, I've started implementing fixing this issue. I'll release a version today.

[philips77]

Released in 1.11.0. Please, test if you have time.

@philips77 I just did a quick test and it seems to work. Thanks for the fix.
