Hi,
I'm having problems using HttpClient in a multi-threaded environment.
When HttpClient.execute is called I occasionally get the following
error, even when there
probably should be connections available in the pool.
org.apache.http.conn.ConnectionPoolTimeoutException: Timeout waiting
for connection from pool

org.apache.http.impl.conn.PoolingClientConnectionManager.leaseConnection(PoolingClientConnectionManager.java:232)

...
Should I explicitly release the connection after each HTTP request is executed?
Is there something else that should be done to clean up after each request?
The HC tutorial recommends passing a per-thread HttpContext object to
HC.execute but is this required?
What kind of state is actually stored in HttpContext?
Below is a simplified version of the code.
// one-time initialization
PoolingClientConnectionManager cm = new PoolingClientConnectionManager();
cm.setDefaultMaxPerRoute(20);
HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient(cm);
// executed repeatedly by multiple concurrent threads
HttpGet rq = new HttpGet(uri);
InputStream is = null;
try {
HttpResponse res = httpClient.execute(rq);
// ...
is = res.getEntity().getContent();
} finally {
is.close();
}
// one-time disposal
httpClient.getConnectionManager().shutdown();
thanks,
marko
