Great, thanks a lot. Now we have anothor problem with the API. We
currently have the capability to cancel a connection in progress by doing
the following:
if ( logonConnection != null )
{
logonConnection.close(); // this is an URLConnection object
}
if (logonInputStream != null)
{
logonInputStream.close();
}
if (logonOutputStream != null)
{
logonOutputStream.close();
}
it would be very nice if the API had the capability of retriving the current
HttpConnection object from HttpClient object (the one given by the
MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager) or the connection that will be used to
execute the PostMethod...

Subject: Re: How to send a serializable object as the request body
Sure, it would look something like the following:
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
PostMethod post = new PostMethod(url);
// buffer object to byte array
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(bos);
oos.writeObject(object);
post.setRequestBody(new
ByteArrayInputStream(bos.toByteArray()));
try {
client.executeMethod(post);
ObjectInputStream in = new
ObjectInputStream(post.getResponseBodyAsStream());
Object result = in.readObject();
} finally {
post.releaseConnection();
}
