MultiThread and setSoTimeout

["linea@libero.it" <li...@libero.it>]

Hi,

my question is the following: I would like to set different timeouts between 
threads..What is the best way to do this?
I can't find any methods to set the timeout except in HttpClient and 
HttpConnection. Setting it in HttpClient results in the same timeout for every 
connection, and, as executing a method causes a connection to be automatically 
allocated by the MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager, I don't know how to seta 
timeout for an already allocated HttpConnection.

A solution could be to use different HttpClients, but this would affect 
performances I guess..

Do I miss anything?

Many thanks

You can wait for the new preference architecture to be finished which 
shall allow this.

Only if you connect to the same host from all threads. Otherwise using a 
separate Instance of HttpClient for each thread does not affect performance.
