Any equivalent to setReuseAddress() to true - ie reuse sockets in TIME_WAIT state

[dh...@lexmark.com]

Hi,

I am creating alot of connections to Tomcat 5 using HttpClient.  As a
result, I have a lot of sockets in the TIME_WAIT state, which lead to a
BindException - Connection In use.

Is there any way to get the HttpClient to reuse these sockets akin to using
setReuseAddress(true) when using a plain socket?

Any other suggestions?

cheers,

David

David,

What kind of connection manager are you using? If yes, consider using
the so called multithreaded connection manager that maintains a pool of
connections:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/3.0/threading.html

Hope this helps,

Oleg
