Hi Asankha HttpConnection#isStale() is only applicable to blocking connections, as in the blocking I/O model there is no way to test if a socket is still valid on both sides other than performing a read operation on that socket. #isStale() is basically meaningless for NIO connections. I very much regret not having moved the method to a blocking I/O specific interface.
