Salut Nicolas, Thanks for reporting this with a test case.
We initially only implemented this feature on the internal HTTP connector. After a bit of refactoring I extended this to other connectors, including Simple. Changes are in SVN trunk. Note that the method actually closes the underlying socket without any special care. Also, 2.0 M7 has been added to the issue tracker. Thanks for pointing that as well.

I have however been incapable of getting this to work. Attached is a sample case, which should be compiled and run against Restlet 2.0m7. What it does is: - create a simple server resource that only accepts POST and immediately calls getRequest().abort(); - submit a "counting" input stream to that resource: the stream will count the number of bytes that it returns. - print the number of bytes that the server resource has read. This number is always the size of the submitted stream, which seems to defeat the purpose of Request.abort(). I might very well have misunderstood the purpose of the abort() method, or be doing something wrong. Can anyone point me in the right direction ? For reference, I'm running these tests: - with Restlet 2.0m7. - using org.restlet.ext.simple for the server connector. Oh, and as a side note, Restlet 2.0m7 isn't yet available in the issue tracker's versions.
