We tried every combination of closing and flushing that we could from the
servlets in JServ (and JRun, for that matter), and that never seemed to
result in anything being sent to the client. If we closed the stream
reading from the client, the engine would read the rest of the bytes from
the client anyway.
I hadn't seen that HTTP/1.1 reference ... I'd be curious whether any
servlet engines (or clients, for that matter) can implement this.
Thanks
