[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-596?page=all ]
Oleg Kalnichevski resolved HTTPCLIENT-596.
------------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Arnaud,
(1) HttpMethod#abort() is not a work around, but rather a recommended way to
interrupt HTTP methods.
(2) If the SocketInputStream doesn't support interruptibility by
Thread#interrupt() it is not HttpClient's job to emulate it.
Oleg
> read() on the stream returned by HttpMethod.getResponseBodyAsStream() cannot
> be simply canceled with Thread.interrupt

> Key: HTTPCLIENT-596
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-596
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: HttpClient
> Affects Versions: 3.0 Final, 3.0.1
> Environment: Windows XP
> Reporter: Arnaud Masson
>
> I have a working thread that needs to download some big file with
> HttpMethod.getResponseBodyAsStream().
> A swing component displays a progress indication and has a "stop" button.
> When the stop button is clicked by the user, I would like to stop the
> download as soon as possible, so I call interrupt() on the working thread
> from the EDT, which should throw an InterruptedException or
> InterruptedIOException inside the working thread.
> But the read() operation on the stream returned by
> HttpMethod.getResponseBodyAsStream() is not interrupted.
> The working thread stacktrace is:
> SocketInputStream.socketRead0(FileDescriptor, byte[], int, int, int)
> //<--------- blocking
> SocketInputStream.read(byte[], int, int) line: 129
> BufferedInputStream.fill() line: 218
> BufferedInputStream.read() line: 235
> ChunkedInputStream.getChunkSizeFromInputStream(InputStream) line: 249
> ChunkedInputStream.nextChunk() line: 220
> ChunkedInputStream.read(byte[], int, int) line: 175
> AutoCloseInputStream(FilterInputStream).read(byte[], int, int) line:
> 111
> AutoCloseInputStream.read(byte[], int, int) line: 107
> ...
> I know that the JRE SocketInputStream doesn't support interrupt() but
> HttpClient should hide this problem.
> A workaround is to use request.abort() but it should be possible to cancel a
> thread without knowing on what it is blocked.
