I'd like to be able to copy the http.DefaultTransport then tweak it for my app.
http.DefaultTransport has a lot of good defaults in, so copying it then tweaking it makes it forward compatible with changes (a good example of a recent change would be the ExpectContinueTimeout). You might think you could just do newTransport := new(http.Transport) *newTransport = *http.DefaultTransport new.Transport.MaxIdleConns = myTweakedValue But if you do that then go vet moans about copying mutexes (for very good reasons). The best I could come up with was using a bit of reflection https://play.golang.org/p/l2mkCTZSzL Is there a better way? Should making an http.Transport with the default settings in be something the standard library should support? Maybe a NewDefaultTransport() function? -- Nick Craig-Wood <n...@craig-wood.com> -- http://www.craig-wood.com/nick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
