Roland Weber commented on HTTPCORE-143:
---------------------------------------
Maybe the question is stupid, but... why does your timeout callback not close
the connection?
A timeout is just an indication of some problem, which may or may not be
temporary.
It should be left to applications whether they want to close a connection or
retry the communication.
just my 0.02€,

> Key: HTTPCORE-143
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-143
> Project: HttpComponents Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: HttpCore NIO
> Affects Versions: 4.0-rc1
> Reporter: Sandeep Tamhankar
> Priority: Critical
> Attachments: DefaultConnectingIOReactor.java.diff
>
>
> Seen in an alpha7 snapshot: svn-597902
> Scenario:
> * I want to talk to a machine that has a firewall configured that drops
> inbound packets on some port: iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 8787 -j DROP
> * I set up a client that uses NIO to open a connection to that host:port,
> with some timeout.
> Expected Result:
> The connection should timeout and the fd should be closed.
> Actual Result:
> My timeout callback gets called, but the connection never gets closed.
