Hi James/Oleg
We get the HttpConnection object's reponseInputStream and create a
objectinputstream out of it and do a Read object on it. The HttpConnection
with webserver is always on and we doesnt close the connection. The issue is
when the webserver pc is removed from network, to the HttpConnection
objectinputStream.readObj doesnt get any SocketException. I think Accessing
stream of a HttpConnection which no longer exists should throw SocketException.
James, as you said setting HttpConnection timeout should fix the issue. But
ido have a session timer which kicks in at configured interval which
disconnects and connects back freshly. So i didnt introduce timeout for
HttpConnection.
