Description Tomasz Zarna CLA 2009-12-23 07:20:31 EST 
URLConnection in J2SE-1.4 has no setReadTimeout method so in bug 73683 we decided to reflectively call 1.5 API (if available). But when J2SE-1.5 is not there applying a patch can hang the Platform (no timeout set). Using Apache's HttpClient lib could be a solution for this. See bug 73683, comment 11 and bug 73683, comment 13 for more details.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
