Hello. Is there a way to stop request processing when client (browser) prematurely closes connection? We have a very resource consuming queries to the backend and want to cancel them when the user navigates using the links from the part of the page he already received (several ajax requests in parallel) or just closes the browser.
Servlet-api does not provide API for such a notification so that should be something jetty-specific i guess. I already tried NetworkTrafficListener with NetworkTrafficSelectChannelConnector but the listener's closed() method is only invoked after the servlet have handled the request even if disconnect happened much earlier. I guess this is the expected behaviour and i guess the reason for it is that selector thead stops listening to events on the socket channel while the request is being handled (so disconnect is not even detected). As far as i understand this is the best solution to handle HTTP keep-alive and thats why it is implemented that way. But we don't need keep-alive because we use nginx in front of Jetty. Maybe there is something i'm missing? I hope a simple solution exists. We use Jetty 7.5.1 in OSGi container. _______________________________________________ jetty-users mailing list [email protected] https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/jetty-users
