Please expose TCP keep-alive (SO_KEEPALIVE)
-------------------------------------------

                 Key: HTTPCORE-277
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-277
             Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Geir Harald Hansen


It would be useful if it was possible to turn on TCP keep-alive 
(java.net.Socket.setKeepAlive) for a connection used for long polling (aka 
comet).

Some users these days are behind NAT routers that kill idle connections after 
as little as 5 minutes. TCP keep-alive could be a solution to keep long poll 
connections alive (and idle) longer than 5 minutes.
