Version of google-http-java-client (e.g. 1.17.0-rc)?
1.17.0-rc (I expect it is also present in older versions too)
Java environment (e.g. Java 6, Android 2.3, App Engine)?
Java 6
Describe the problem.
Running the main method below (against a service that supports PUT) will hang
when trying to invoke getInput() on the underlying java.net.HttpURLConnection -
line 379 in java 1.6.0_45.
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
new NetHttpTransport()
.createRequestFactory()
.buildPutRequest(
new GenericUrl("http://example.com"), null)
.execute();
}
I don't know if this is specific to the server being called or if it's generic
to all PUT requests (I couldn't find a public service that I could easily test
it against). I would have to assume that if at least one server hangs the
response connection awaiting the close of the request then there will be others.
This behaviour also happens when using the underlying java net URL too, but it
can be fixed there by adding the line connection.getOutputStream().close().
How would you expect it to be fixed?
It would be nice if the client libraries would at least document that this may
happen or even better error or default a PUT request to use an EmptyContent
instead of not requesting the content at all.
