http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35944 Summary: default CONNECTION_MANAGER_TIMEOUT should not be zero Product: HttpClient Version: 3.0 RC3 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: HttpClient AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] the default config of leaving the HttpClientParams.CONNECTION_MANAGER_TIMEOUT as zero means that the first time the connection manager fails to immediately get a connection you application hangs. (at least using MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager.) this is because the zero gets passed onto a call to Object.wait(long timeout) and, from the docs, "If timeout is zero, however, then real time is not taken into consideration and the thread simply waits until notified.". since nothing ever "notify()"s the thread everything just stops... the default behaviour of the client more should be more predictable. you don't expect it to hang your entire app if it can't get a connection, you expect it to timeout then throw an exception or give some other kind of feedback. it would make sense to give a default of, say, arbitrarily, 10 seconds or so. this would save every single user of the classes having to dig around in the code/documentation and explictly set this param. they might decide that the default value isn't right and hence change it, but that's tweaking behaviour, not correcting it. i certainly thought it was a bug in the code (yours or mine), not my config and have been fretting around it for a while. best, garry -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
