Scott Cantor commented on XERCESC-2183:
---------------------------------------
You should NOT be relying on Xerces for any networking. One semi-acceptable
option might be the curl support, but if that's not sufficient, you should
implement your own NetAccessor. The code inside the project now is a toy only
and is not suitable for anything substantive.
Of course, most XML applications should NEVER allow any remote access to
resources anyway, which is why this is not usually a major concern.
> Xerces block on socket receive

> Project: Xerces-C++
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Utilities
> Affects Versions: 3.2.1
> Environment: Windows
> Visual Studio2017
> Reporter: ayoub serti

> Hello,
> We use Xerces to parse and validating xml data.
> When XML data contains external prolog ( web-hosted prolog ) like:
> [http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd]
> Our application hang on BinHTTPURLInputStream::receive(char *buf, XMLSize_t
> len) because it try to read 1024 bytes from socket without timeout.
> After investigation, We found that [http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd]
> return a 307 status and ask browser to redirect to https url.
> I believe the simplest approach is to change buffer chunck size in
> BinHTTPInputStreamCommon::sendRequest() : L223 to read only first part of
> HTTP headers.
> Is there any way to configure socket timeout?
