But what if you want a persistent connection? If you call releaseConnection() are you not dropping the line? I was assuming that .recycle() was the correct way to maintain a persistent connection. Thanks.

HttpMethod#recycle among many things calls HttpMethod#releaseConnection which in its turn attempts to reads the remaining response content to make sure that connection reusable. If the socket timeout is not set, releaseConnection may hang indefinitely under certain circumstances (target server is slow, congested network, etc) Besides, I want to echo Odi's comment: there's nothing to be gained from method recycling. Just create a new HTTP method every time you need to execute an HTTP request. Do not forget to call HttpMethod#releaseConnection, though Oleg -----Original Message----- From: Himanshu Thube [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 11, 2004 17:52 To: Commons HttpClient Project Subject: Re: PostMethod 's recycle method has problem Hi Christopher Well thats the main problem. When my code comes to asynchPost.recycle() in code below the program hangs !! I am giving some code below to give an idea. This is not the original code though. Does anybody know whats wrong here ?? while(myflag) { if(asyncState!=null) { asynchPost.execute(asyncState,asyncConnection); } else { statusCode = asynchHttpsclient.executeMethod(asynchPost); asyncState=asynchHttpsclient.getState(); } if(asynchPost==null) { if(usehttps) { asynchPost = new PostMethod(httpsasynchUri.toString()); } else { asynchPost = new PostMethod(httpasynchUri.toString()); } } else if (asynchPost.hasBeenUsed()) { asynchPost.recycle(); } if(deviceProperty.getRequestObject()!=null) { Document request=(Document)deviceProperty.getRequestObject(); asynchPost.setRequestBody(new String(MyUtils.getBytesOfDom(request))); } } Foran, Christopher wrote: >I think I know the answer to this one.
