Java HTTP Client Request with defined timeout
- by Maxim Veksler
Hello,
I would like to make BIT (Built in tests) to a number of server in my cloud. I need the request to fail on large timeout.
How should I do this with java?
Trying something like the below does not seem to work.
public class TestNodeAliveness {
public static NodeStatus nodeBIT(String elasticIP) throws ClientProtocolException, IOException {
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
client.getParams().setIntParameter("http.connection.timeout", 1);
HttpUriRequest request = new HttpGet("http://192.168.20.43");
HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);
System.out.println(response.toString());
return null;
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws ClientProtocolException, IOException {
nodeBIT("");
}
}
-- EDIT: Clarify what library is being used --
I'm using httpclient from apache, here is the relevant pom.xml section
org.apache.httpcomponents
httpclient
4.0.1
