ConnectionTimeoutException doesn't releaseConnection()

           Summary: ConnectionTimeoutException doesn't releaseConnection()
           Product: Commons
           Version: 2.0 Alpha 1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: HttpClient
        AssignedTo: becke@u.washington.edu
        ReportedBy: linea@libero.it
                CC: commons-httpclient-dev@jakarta.apache.org


When a ConnectionTimeoutException is thrown, HttpConnection doesn't seem to
release the connection. Instead, the connection is properly released if an
InterruptedIOException is thrown.

This is the pattern I use:

Try {
     method.execute(...);
     method.getResponseBodyAsString();
 } catch (ConnectionTimeoutException cte) {
     ...
 } catch (InterruptedIOException ioe) {
     ...
 } finally {
     method.releaseConnection();
     LOG.info("RELEASED");   
 }

The following log shows that no actual release is performed, while the message
"RELEASED" is logged.

10544  DEBUG [MainCheck2] httpclient.HttpConnection - enter
HttpConnection.isResponseAvailable(int)
10930  WARN  [MainCheck1] httpclient.HttpConnection - The host
www.pccomputing.com:80 (or proxy null:-1) did not accept the connection within
timeout of 3000 milliseconds
10931  WARN  [MainCheck1] CheckPerformer - Connection Timeout occurred..

...

10932  INFO  [MainCheck1] CheckPerformer - RELEASED

->Here no call to HttpConnection.releaseConnection() is performed. 

Thanks
