Thanks Roland
Using different HttpClient objects for each user is a waste of resources.
Cookies are not stored in the HttpClient object, but in an HttpState
object. Keep different HttpState objects for each user and pass them
to a single HttpClient object when executing methods, instead of using
the default state of different HttpClient objects.
In this case I would have to synchrozize this block of code
synchronized(foo) {
httpClient.setState(getStateForThisUser());
HttpMethod getMethod = new HttpMethod();
client.executeMethod(getMethod);
saveStateForThisUser(httpClient.getState())
}
It seems to me I will have to synchronize until the method is complete and
the state in HttpClient updated which is quite a bottleneck. Or am I missing
something?
Many thanks,
David
