  1. POStrict and reliable timeout on HttpClient
    text
    copied!<p>I'm reading a web page using HttpClient like this: </p> <pre><code> httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(); httpget = new HttpGet("http://google.com"); HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpget); HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity(); if (entity != null) { InputStream PIS = entity.getContent(); } </code></pre> <p>I need a timeout on the entire job (connecting, waiting &amp; reading - All together or separately).<br> I tried setting timeout parameters just after <code>httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();</code> line: </p> <pre><code> int timeout=10; httpclient.getParams().setParameter("http.socket.timeout", timeout * 1000); httpclient.getParams().setParameter("http.connection.timeout", timeout * 1000); httpclient.getParams().setParameter("http.connection-manager.timeout", new Long(timeout * 1000)); httpclient.getParams().setParameter("http.protocol.head-body-timeout", timeout * 1000); </code></pre> <p>But it didn't worked (It timeouts after about 10 times more than the timeout I set).<br> So I tried a thread to cancel request after a time using <code>httpget.abort()</code> &amp; <code>httpclient.getConnectionManager().shutdown()</code> just after <code>httpget = new HttpGet("http://google.com");</code> line like this:</p> <pre><code> (new Timer()).schedule(new java.util.TimerTask() { public void run() { httpget.abort(); httpclient.getConnectionManager().shutdown(); } },10000); </code></pre> <p>but it had no effect(Timer runs; but those two lines of code do nothing!)!!<br> I also tried to use this: </p> <pre><code>URL url = new URL("http://google.com"); URLConnection con = url.openConnection(); con.setConnectTimeout(10000); con.setReadTimeout(10000); InputStream PIS = con.getInputStream(); </code></pre> <p>but it was same as my first try (setting timeout parameters in <code>HttpClient</code>)!! </p> <p>what is the problem?<br> <strong>How can I solve my timeout problem?</strong> </p> <p>Thanks</p>
