[jira] [Created] (THRIFT-3243) Possible socket leak in THttpClient

Abhinav Gupta created THRIFT-3243:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Possible socket leak in THttpClient
                 Key: THRIFT-3243
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3243
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Python - Library
            Reporter: Abhinav Gupta
            Priority: Minor


In THttpClient, the system does not close an HTTP connection until a consecutive request is made:

    def flush(self):
      if self.isOpen():
        self.close()
      self.open()

If the THttpClient is discarded right after making a request, it will leave the connection open until it's garbage collected. It will be safer to close the connection after making the request.

Pull request upcoming.
