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

["Abhinav Gupta (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3243?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Abhinav Gupta closed THRIFT-3243.
---------------------------------
    Resolution: Invalid

Technically not a bug after all. The open connection is used to read body by the protocol. The caller should close the transport when they're done. Closing as invalid.

> 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.
