[bcc'ing off jdk7-...@openjdk.java.net, and including net-dev@openjdk.java.net]

Hi Stuart,

Thanks for reporting this issue.

It does indeed look like a regression/side-effect of that recent change. There is no sign of your attached patch, maybe it got stripped by mailman. You can probably just post it inline.

Thanks,
-Chris.

Hello everyone,

(This is my first post to this list, so I am not 100% sure if this is

I have run into a bug in the JDK HttpClient that was caused by a recent
commit:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7u/jdk7u/jdk/diff/e6dc1d9bc70b/src/share/classes/sun/net/www/http/HttpClient.java


The method sun.net.www.http.HttpClient#available() can throw
java.net.SocketException, which can cause the creation of the HttpClient
to fail. This will happen if there is a connection in the cache that has
timed out and the socket has been closed.

I have attached a small patch that should resolve the problem, although
due to its intermittent nature I have not been able to verify with 100%
certainty.


The exception is:

Caused by: java.net.SocketException: Socket Closed

This issue also seems to affect JDK 6, and it appears that other people
have also run into this:

I attempted to file a bug for this on the Oracle website, however as far
as I can tell it was ignored.
