Re: How to interrupt connexion ?
This may be an ignorant question, but here it goes: Couldn't you have an interrupt method that calls close() on the underlying streams, then calls close() on the socket itself? If I recall correctly, calling close() on a socket causes any thread that is blocked on that socket to throw a SocketException. But it should work if you shut down the associated streams first, right? --Nathan McMinn - Original Message - From: "Laura Werner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Commons HttpClient Project" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, July 03, 2003 3:12 PM Subject: Re: How to interrupt connexion ? > Oleg Kalnichevski wrote: > > >Sadly enough, there's (there will be) no reliable way to interrupt a > >request in the release 2.0.

Re: Where to post
Thank you. It's kind of an http newbie question, but here it is. I create a PostMethod object, and use it to post data to a site's login page. The login page redirects to another page within the site. When that redirect is sent, I get the following message: Jun 26, 2003 1:48:21 PM org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodBase processRedirectResponse INFO: Redirect requested but followRedirects is disabled I have set allowRedirects to true within the PostMethod object. However, I noticed that PostMethod inherits from EntityEnclosingMethod, overriding getAllowRedirects with a method that always returns false (per rfc2616). This is obviously not a bug, but how would you recommend handling this situation. The data I am after is on the page that will be redirected to. I can just create a GetMethod and give it the url that would be redirected to, but how to get rid of that error message. Any suggestions?
