Class Overview

Interface for releasing a connection. This can be implemented by various "trigger" objects which are associated with a connection, for example a stream or an entity or the connection itself.
The methods in this interface can safely be called multiple times. The first invocation releases the connection, subsequent calls are ignored.

Summary

abstract void releaseConnection()
Releases the connection with the option of keep-alive.

Public Methods

public abstract void abortConnection ()

Releases the connection without the option of keep-alive. This is a "hard" release that implies a shutdown of the connection. Use releaseConnection for a graceful release.

Throws
IOException in case of an IO problem. The connection will be released anyway.

public abstract void releaseConnection ()

Releases the connection with the option of keep-alive. This is a "graceful" release and may cause IO operations for consuming the remainder of a response entity. Use abortConnection for a hard release. The connection may be reused as specified by the duration.

Throws
IOException in case of an IO problem. The connection will be released anyway.
