Here's the current hierarchy of preference objects

Global params
 !
 +--- HttpClient params
       !
       +--- HttpConnectionManager params
       !     !
       !     +--- HttpConnection params
       !
       +--- HttpMethod params

Logically SO_TIMEOUT parameter applies to HttpConnection objects. It has nothing to do 
with HttpMethod objects (at least in my opinion). This way SO_TIMEOUT parameter can be 
defined at the HttpConnection level or any level above HttpConnection, that is 
HttpConnectionManager, HttpClient, or Global. HttpConnection will retrieve the value 
of SO_TIMEOUT from the lowest level at which it is defined. Per default SO_TIMEOUT is 
undefined, that is, the JVM default value will apply

Subject: SoTimeout setting


Hi,
how am I supposed to set the socket timeout for an HttpClient and for different 
HttpMethods with the new preferences architecture?

I don't understand the inheritance scheme: how can HttpMethodParams inherit 
SO_TIMEOUT from HttpConnectionParams?
What is the default value of SO_TIMEOUT for a client and for a method?

thanks a lot
