How to use two distinct HttpClients on the same web site

[Fabien BALAGEAS <fa...@twinsoft.fr>]

Hi,
 
I am using HttpClient 2.0.1.
 
I would like to have two HttpClient connections to the same web site in
my application, but from two "distinct" HttpClient (i.e. each connection
should handle its self cookies).
 
How can i realize this task ?
 
Up to now, i only managed to have two connections to the web site, but
with the same cookies sent, so the web site see my two connections as if
they were one.
 
Thanks in advance for your help,
Fabien

Fabien,

If all you need is to maintain a distinct conversational state per
logical web application hosted on the same physical platform, you should
have just only one HttpClient instance and then keep different HttpState
instances per web application. It does take a bit of HttpState juggling,
but the benefit of such setup will be a better overall performance, as
HttpClient would be able to reuse physical connections to the host.

=================================================================
HttpClient httpclient = new HttpClient();

HttpState httpstate1 = new HttpState();
GetMethod httpget1 = new GetMethod("http://www.whatever.com/app1");
try {
	httpclient.executeMethod(null, httpget1, httpstate1);
	System.out.println(httpget1.getStatusLine()); 
	System.out.println(httpget1.getResponseBodyAsString());
	httpstate1.getCookies();
} finally {
	httpget1.releaseConnection();
}

HttpState httpstate2 = new HttpState();
GetMethod httpget2 = new GetMethod("http://www.whatever.com/app2");
try {
	httpclient.executeMethod(null, httpget2, httpstate2);
	System.out.println(httpget2.getStatusLine()); 
	System.out.println(httpget2.getResponseBodyAsString());
	httpstate2.getCookies();
} finally {
	httpget2.releaseConnection();
}
 
Hope this helps

Oleg
