[jira] Commented: (VFS-313) CLONE -FTP configuration does not include option for setting socket timeout

["Brad Davis (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-313?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12887916#action_12887916 ] 

Brad Davis commented on VFS-313:
--------------------------------

The original issue / patch does not resolve the issue.  If you look at the order of operations, the so timeout is set only after the client.connect(hostname, port); has been called, meaning the socket can hang on the connection.  Attached is a patch which resolves this and allows for a two seperate timeout values, one for connect and one for the control connection communications in general (the previously added  setSoTimeout)

> The FTP Configuration includes an option to set a timeout for the data connection, but not for the socket timeout. This is a problem, as idle sockets can cause your download to hang forever and never timeout.
