Hi folks, How can I limit the amount of data downloaded for a request executed by the HttpAsyncClient and still process the response as "completed" in the registered FutureCallback? The use case is a large scale web crawler that truncates resources deemed too large.
I started by limiting the amount of data read from the response entity's InputStream, however this doesn't work with the default BasicAsyncResponseConsumer, because it uses the dynamically expanding SimpleInputBuffer to download the entire response entity. I implemented my own HttpAsyncResponseConsumer, similar to the BasicAsyncResponseConsumer, and tried using IOControl to signal shutdown once the I've read maximum desired number of bytes, however this triggers a ConnectionClosedException. This is undesirable because I can't distinguish it from other causes of ConnectionClosedExceptions, and I want to treat "truncated" responses as completed in the registered FutureCallback (where I post-process the response). Is there another method of implementing my desired functionality?
