- All Implemented Interfaces:
- ConnectionReuseStrategy
@Immutable
public class DefaultConnectionReuseStrategy
extends java.lang.Object
implements ConnectionReuseStrategy
Default implementation of a strategy deciding about connection re-use.
The default implementation first checks some basics, for example
whether the connection is still open or whether the end of the
request entity can be determined without closing the connection.
If these checks pass, the tokens in the Connection header will
be examined. In the absence of a Connection header, the
non-standard but commonly used Proxy-Connection header takes
it's role. A token close indicates that the connection cannot
be reused. If there is no such token, a token keep-alive
indicates that the connection should be re-used. If neither token is found,
or if there are no Connection headers, the default policy for
the HTTP version is applied. Since HTTP/1.1, connections are
re-used by default. Up until HTTP/1.0, connections are not
re-used by default.
