-------------------------------------------------

             Summary: Wrong type of exception raised because of hardcoded 
string-compare
                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1485
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1485
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HttpClient
    Affects Versions: 4.3.3, 4.3.2
            Reporter: Dominik Bennersdorfer


In the lines 
org.apache.http.impl.conn.HttpClientConnectionOperator.java:134-143 we found 
that the message of the ConnectException is compared to the hardcoded string 
"Connection timed out".
This can causes wrong break down to the http-client own Exception-types on 
Systems with other languages.

} catch (final ConnectException ex) {
        if (last) {
                final String msg = ex.getMessage();
                if ("Connection timed out".equals(msg)) {
                        throw new ConnectTimeoutException(ex, host, addresses);
                } else {
                        throw new HttpHostConnectException(ex, host, addresses);
                }
        }
}

To illustrate the Problem see the following Example:
On our server the locale is set to "de_AT.ISO-8859-15@euro" 
with a simple wget i get this (see the message in last line)

root@MRW-MJA-vml1:/tmp# wget http://www.google.at:81
--2014-03-14 12:46:44--  http://www.google.at:81/
Auflösen des Hostnamen www.google.at... 173.194.39.183
Verbindungsaufbau zu www.google.at|173.194.39.183|:81... fehlgeschlagen: Die 
Wartezeit für die Verbindung ist abgelaufen.

after changing the locale to "en_US.ISO-8859-15" i get the following:

root@MRW-MJA-vml1:/tmp# wget http://www.google.at:81
--2014-03-14 12:43:33--  http://www.google.at:81/
Resolving www.google.at... 173.194.32.223
Connecting to www.google.at|173.194.32.223|:81... failed: Connection timed out.


Example with httpclient 4.3.3 (parts from our tracing):
Exception<org.apache.http.conn.HttpHostConnectException> Message<Connect to 
**** failed: Die Wartezeit für die Verbindung ist abgelaufen> 
Cause<java.net.ConnectException: Die Wartezeit für die Verbindung ist 
abgelaufen>

We excpected to get a ConnectTimeoutException rather than a 
HttpHostConnectException
