Hello, We're using "IdleConnectionTimeoutThread".
The code is the following: this.objHttp = new HttpClient(new MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager()); this.ictt = new IdleConnectionTimeoutThread(); this.ictt.addConnectionManager(this.objHttp.getHttpConnectionManager()); this.ictt.setTimeoutInterval(10000); this.ictt.setConnectionTimeout(20000); If I'm right, thread that checks for idle connections starts every 10 seconds and removes all idle connections with no activity for more than 20 seconds. Is it OK? And if it's, how can I find out that idle connections are really being removed? I could see when we send a request with httpclient, the connection goes to ESTABLISHED state, and when we release this connection, it goes to CLOSE_WAIT state, and remains in this state for several minutes. Is an idle connection a connection in CLOSE_WAIT state? If httpclient removes one idle connection, must I suppose that the number of CLOSE_WAIT connections are decrement in 1? (looking at them with the "netstat" linux statement). Basicly, now my problem is I need to check that "IdleConnectionTimeoutThread " is really removing idle connections, but I'm not sure how to do this. Another thing you told me was that I could use the method "closeIdleConnections(timeout)". I suppose that the right way to do this is calling this method after "releaseConnection". Is this the correct way? And if it's, is it optimal to call "closeIdleConnections" after every "releaseConnection"? Thanks in advance, Joan. -----Mensaje original----- De: Oleg Kalnichevski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviado el: viernes, 18 de julio de 2008 0:06 Para: HttpClient User Discussion Asunto: RE: Pool running out of connections On Thu, 2008-07-17 at 17:41 +0200, Joan Balagueró wrote: > Hello, > > Thanks for your response.

You do not necessarily need a special thread to achieve that. Just call HttpConnectionManager#closeIdleConnections method after a period inactivity to purge stale connections: http://hc.apache.org/httpclient-3.x/apidocs/org/apache/commons/httpclient/HttpConnectionManager.html#closeIdleConnections(long) Oleg > > > > -----Mensaje original----- > De: Oleg Kalnichevski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Enviado el: miércoles, 16 de julio de 2008 18:03 > Para: HttpClient User Discussion > Asunto: Re: Pool running out of connections > > On Wed, 2008-07-16 at 09:03 +0200, Joan Balagueró wrote: > > Hello, > > > > > > > > We have developed software that uses HttpClient 3.1. > > > > > > > > It has been working for 2 months.
