             Summary: HttpAsyncRequester leaks a connection if a request is 
cancelled before the connection is established
                 Key: HTTPCORE-315
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-315
             Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HttpCore NIO
    Affects Versions: 4.2.2
            Reporter: Scott Stanton


When using HttpAsyncRequester in combination with a BasicNIOConnPool, if the 
future returned from execute() is cancelled before the connection is 
established, then the connection will be leaked after it connects (added to the 
leased list after the cancelled() callbacks are invoked).  The sequence that 
leads to this is:

* AbstractNIOConnPool.requestCompleted() calls RouteSpecificPool.completed() 
which ultimately calls HttpAsyncRequester.completed()
* HttpAsyncRequester.completed() detects that the requestFuture is done, so it 
attempts to release the pool entry
* The pool entry hasn't been added to the leased list yet, so the release has 
no effect and the connection is not added to the available list
* After the completed callback returns to requestCompleted(), the connection is 
added to the leased list.

At this point, no thread is expecting to do anything further with the 
connection, so it is effectively lost and consuming a pool slot.

I think the correct remedy is to ensure that the connection is added to the 
global leased list as well as the route specific leased list before the 
completed() callback is invoked.  This should ensure that the connection is 
properly cleaned up.
