Hi, We are currently using the jax rs WebClient class to call Rest URLs from services we are developing. Up until now we haven't been explicitly calling "close" on the Response or the WebClient objects as none of the examples I have seen showed this but after looking more closely at the APIs I see the close() methods exist.
The javadoc implies close() is called on the response when you use the readEntity() method but should I assume that if I just checked the response status code and didn't consume the entity then I should do an explicit close? org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.client.AbstractClient (which WebClient inherits) has a close() method, again should I call this explicitly? Currently we create a new WebClient for every call rather than reuse a single instance. Pls note I am using cxf 2.7.12 Many thanks Mandy
