Deprecated.

Creates an instance of HttpMessageWriter to be used for writing out HTTP requests sent over this connection.

This method can be overridden in a super class in order to provide a different implementation of the HttpMessageWriter interface or to pass a different implementation of LineFormatter to the the default implementation HttpRequestWriter.

Parameters:

buffer - the session output buffer

params - HTTP parameters

Returns:

HTTP message writer

createConnectionMetrics

protected HttpConnectionMetricsImpl createConnectionMetrics(HttpTransportMetrics inTransportMetric,
                                                            HttpTransportMetrics outTransportMetric)

                    HttpParams params)

Deprecated.

Initializes this connection object with SessionInputBuffer and SessionOutputBuffer instances to be used for sending and receiving data. These session buffers can be bound to any arbitrary physical output medium.

This method will invoke createHttpResponseFactory(), createRequestWriter(SessionOutputBuffer, HttpParams) and createResponseParser(SessionInputBuffer, HttpResponseFactory, HttpParams) methods to initialize HTTP request writer and response parser for this connection.

Parameters:

sessionInputBuffer - the session input buffer.

sessionOutputBuffer - the session output buffer.

params - HTTP parameters.

isResponseAvailable

Description copied from interface: HttpClientConnection

Checks if response data is available from the connection. May wait for the specified time until some data becomes available. Note that some implementations may completely ignore the timeout parameter.

Specified by:

isResponseAvailable in interface HttpClientConnection

Parameters:

timeout - the maximum time in milliseconds to wait for data

Returns:

true if data is available; false if there was no data available even after waiting for timeout milliseconds.

Throws:

IOException - if an error happens on the connection

public HttpResponse receiveResponseHeader()
                                   throws HttpException,
                                          IOException

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: HttpClientConnection

Receives the request line and headers of the next response available from this connection. The caller should examine the HttpResponse object to find out if it should try to receive a response entity as well.

Specified by:

receiveResponseHeader in interface HttpClientConnection

Returns:

a new HttpResponse object with status line and headers initialized.

Throws:

HttpException - in case of HTTP protocol violation

isEof

protected boolean isEof()

Deprecated.

isStale

public boolean isStale()

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: HttpConnection

Checks whether this connection has gone down. Network connections may get closed during some time of inactivity for several reasons. The next time a read is attempted on such a connection it will throw an IOException. This method tries to alleviate this inconvenience by trying to find out if a connection is still usable. Implementations may do that by attempting a read with a very small timeout. Thus this method may block for a small amount of time before returning a result. It is therefore an expensive operation.

Specified by:

isStale in interface HttpConnection

Returns:

true if attempts to use this connection are likely to succeed, or false if they are likely to fail and this connection should be closed

getMetrics

public HttpConnectionMetrics getMetrics()

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: HttpConnection

Returns a collection of connection metrics.

Specified by:

getMetrics in interface HttpConnection

Returns:

HttpConnectionMetrics
