This feature is planned for inclusion in the next major release of HttpClient (4.0): http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10815 Meanwhile, one can implement the required functionality by extending one of the existing HttpConnectionManager classes. Basically all it appears to take is a listener (list of listeners) and an aidditional test in the HttpConnectionManager#getConnectionWithTimeout method: HttpConnection conn = super.getConnectionWithTimeout(...); boolean persistent = conn.isOpen(); callListeners(persistent); Or something along this line Oleg > regards > > Tony > > > > Michael Becke wrote: > > >Hi Tony, > > > >Before a method executes it is not associated with a connection, so > >there would be nothing to test.
