Stan, do you happen to have any code/links for killing the rogue thread? interrupt() does not seem to work.

I know you can set the timeout on a Socket. Unfortunately, it doesn't
appear that URLConnection provides access to the underlying socket. :-(
You can always run your code in a thread and have your main thread do a join
for the stipulated time...

Subject: [jdjlist] HttpURLConnection timeout
Dear All:
How do I set the timeout for an HttpURLConnection running from a server?
i.e. if it did not get the response back in stipulated time, drop the
connection?
This is my server connection code, look for a FIXME note. I found lots of
notes about the Servlet utilities for this, but little about the
server-based URL connections.
Thanks!
Greg
//begin open URL
URL url = new URL(urlString);
conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
conn.setRequestMethod(POST);
conn.setAllowUserInteraction(false); // you may not ask the user
conn.setDoOutput(true); // we want to send things
conn.setDoInput(true); // we want recieve things
conn.setUseCaches(false); // turn off caching
//the Content-type should be default, but we set it anyway
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-type",
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
//fixes Netscap bug?? Do we need this?
//conn.setRequestProperty("User-Agent","Mozilla/4.7 [en] (Win98;
I)");
//the content-length should not be necessary, but we're cautious
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-length",
Integer.toString(body.length()));
OutputStream rawOutStream = conn.getOutputStream();
out = new DataOutputStream(rawOutStream);
out.writeBytes(body);
out.flush();
out.close();
// get the input stream for reading the reply
// IMPORTANT! Your body will not get transmitted if you get the
// InputStream before completely writing out your output first!

InputStream rawInStream = conn.getInputStream();
in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(rawInStream));
String inputLine;
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null)
responseMessage.append(inputLine);
in.close();
