How to set HttpResponse timeout for Android in Java? In my example, two timeouts are set. The connection timeout throws java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Socket is not connected and the socket timeout java.net.SocketTimeoutException: The operation timed out.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 | HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url); HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams(); // Set the timeout in milliseconds until a connection is established. // The default value is zero, that means the timeout is not used. int timeoutConnection = 3000; HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutConnection); // Set the default socket timeout (SO_TIMEOUT) // in milliseconds which is the timeout for waiting for data. int timeoutSocket = 5000; HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutSocket); DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParameters); HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(httpGet); |
If you want to set the Parameters of any existing HTTPClient (e.g. DefaultHttpClient or AndroidHttpClient) you can use the function setParams().
1 | httpClient.setParams(httpParameters); |
