当你得到一个HttpResponse之后,
用
InputStream in = response.getEntity().getContent();
可以得到一个InputStream。
正常人都明白,InputStream用完要关闭。然后我发现我的程序hang在了ChunkedInputStream的close方法上。
它的close方法是: 一直读,读到服务器不再send为止!!!! 而我本来是想对一个几百GB的大文件做分段下载,于是就悲剧了。
该类的注释是这么写的:
Note that this class NEVER closes the underlying stream, even when close
gets called. Instead, it will read until the "end" of its chunking on
close, which allows for the seamless execution of subsequent HTTP 1.1
requests, while not requiring the client to remember to read the entire
contents of the response.
也就是说,我连释放connection的机会都没有。
有人报告了bug,https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-402但是官方的说法是:这不是bug,这是feature! 该被close的不是那个InputStream,而是HttpResponse!
问题来了: httpclient 4.2的HttpResponse根本就没有close方法!!!!!!!
表问我为啥不升级。 不可能!
