> Allow SecurityManager to stop socket connections

> Key: HTTPCORE-517
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-517
> Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: HttpCore NIO
> Reporter: Paul Thompson
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 4.4.10, 5.0-beta3
>
>
> Utilising a java security manager you're able to block certain socket
> connections from taking place. This can be useful to block outgoing
> connections for all components.
> {code:java}
> @Override
> public void checkConnect(String host, int port) {
> if(port != -1) {
> for (String bannedPerm : bannedSocketPerms) {
> if (host.equalsIgnoreCase(bannedPerm)) {
> throw new new SecurityException();
> }
> }
> }
> }{code}
> Unfortunately when doing this, the apache reactor shuts down. The call site
> is in the {{DefaultConnectingIOReactor}}.
> {code:java}
> final boolean connected = socketChannel.connect(request.getRemoteAddress());
> {code}
> this line is wrapped in a try/catch that catches an {{IOException}}. This
> means the {{SecurityException}} is propagated out, and is never offered to be
> caught (even with the {{ExceptionHandler}} that you can set.
> It would be an improvement to be able to throw these types of exceptions and
> have the reactor continue on. It's very understandable for the
> {{SecurityException}} to be a transient error and as such shouldn't shut down
> the entire reactor by default.
> Either that, or one should be able to define a {{handleRuntimeException}} (as
> seen in the {{BaseIOREactor}}) in such a way that it would get the option to
> handle the exceptions that are thrown as part of the {{processEvents}} call
> in the {{AbstractIOReactor}}
