Hi Eric, We have some bugs to squash before Restlet 1.1 RC1, especially in the internal connectors. For a list of open bugs, see link at http://www.restlet.org/about/roadmap Your code looks right. For now, I suggest that you use client and server connectors like Jetty/Simple or Net/Apache following the instructions here: http://www.restlet.org/documentation/1.1/connectors I've added your report in the comments of this bug report so it doesn't get lost: "Too many open files -> close socket in StreamServerHelper?" http://restlet.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=514 Best regards, Jerome
_____ De : Eric Lui [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé : jeudi 7 août 2008 04:42 À : [email protected] Objet : release() method - doesn't appear to release connections? I'm new to the world of Restlet, but i'm finding it a really expressive framework. I have an application which sends POST requests to a Restlet server using the Restlet Client library, using threads for each POST request. Upon sending the third request, the thread will block indefinitely. It seems the previous requests never release the connection back to the pool, even though I am explicitly calling release() in my finally block: try { System.out.println("connection # " + ++count); response = client.handle(request); status = response.getStatus(); text = response.getEntity().getText(); // should close the representation } catch (IOException e) { throw new RuntimeException (e); } finally { response.getEntity().release(); } If I adjust maxConnectionsPerHost, the number of requests before blocking goes up by the same amount. What am I doing wrong? Is there another step to make sure the representation is completely read and released? -- Eric
