Class Overview

Defines parameter names for connections in HttpCore.

Summary

Constants
String CONNECTION_TIMEOUT Determines the timeout until a connection is etablished.
String MAX_HEADER_COUNT Determines the maximum HTTP header count allowed.
String MAX_LINE_LENGTH Determines the maximum line length limit.
String SOCKET_BUFFER_SIZE Determines the size of the internal socket buffer used to buffer data while receiving / transmitting HTTP messages.
String SO_LINGER Sets SO_LINGER with the specified linger time in seconds.
String SO_TIMEOUT Defines the default socket timeout (SO_TIMEOUT) in milliseconds which is the timeout for waiting for data.
String STALE_CONNECTION_CHECK Determines whether stale connection check is to be used.
String TCP_NODELAY Determines whether Nagle's algorithm is to be used.

Constants

public static final String CONNECTION_TIMEOUT

Since: API Level 1

Determines the timeout until a connection is etablished. A value of zero means the timeout is not used. The default value is zero.

This parameter expects a value of type Integer.

Constant Value: "http.connection.timeout"

public static final String MAX_HEADER_COUNT

Since: API Level 1

Determines the maximum HTTP header count allowed. If set to a positive value, the number of HTTP headers received from the data stream exceeding this limit will cause an IOException. A negative or zero value will effectively disable the check.

This parameter expects a value of type Integer.

Constant Value: "http.connection.max-header-count"

public static final String MAX_LINE_LENGTH

Since: API Level 1

Determines the maximum line length limit. If set to a positive value, any HTTP line exceeding this limit will cause an IOException. A negative or zero value will effectively disable the check.

This parameter expects a value of type Integer.

Constant Value: "http.connection.max-line-length"

public static final String SOCKET_BUFFER_SIZE

Since: API Level 1

Determines the size of the internal socket buffer used to buffer data while receiving / transmitting HTTP messages.

This parameter expects a value of type Integer.

Constant Value: "http.socket.buffer-size"

public static final String SO_LINGER

Since: API Level 1

Sets SO_LINGER with the specified linger time in seconds. The maximum timeout value is platform specific. Value 0 implies that the option is disabled. Value -1 implies that the JRE default is used. The setting only affects socket close.

This parameter expects a value of type Integer.

Constant Value: "http.socket.linger"

public static final String SO_TIMEOUT

Since: API Level 1

Defines the default socket timeout (SO_TIMEOUT) in milliseconds which is the timeout for waiting for data. A timeout value of zero is interpreted as an infinite timeout. This value is used when no socket timeout is set in the method parameters.

This parameter expects a value of type Integer.

Constant Value: "http.socket.timeout"

public static final String STALE_CONNECTION_CHECK

Since: API Level 1

Determines whether stale connection check is to be used. Disabling stale connection check may result in slight performance improvement at the risk of getting an I/O error when executing a request over a connection that has been closed at the server side.

This parameter expects a value of type Boolean.

Constant Value: "http.connection.stalecheck"

public static final String TCP_NODELAY

Since: API Level 1

Determines whether Nagle's algorithm is to be used. The Nagle's algorithm tries to conserve bandwidth by minimizing the number of segments that are sent. When applications wish to decrease network latency and increase performance, they can disable Nagle's algorithm (that is enable TCP_NODELAY). Data will be sent earlier, at the cost of an increase in bandwidth consumption.

This parameter expects a value of type Boolean.
