Method Details

reserveConnection

ReservedBlockingHttpConnection reserveConnection(HttpRequestMetaData metaData)
                                          throws Exception

Reserve a BlockingHttpConnection based on provided HttpRequestMetaData.

If a new connection should be opened instead of potentially reusing an already established one, the HttpContextKeys.HTTP_FORCE_NEW_CONNECTION must be set.

Parameters:

metaData - Allows the underlying layers to know what BlockingHttpConnections are valid to reserve for future requests with the same HttpRequestMetaData. For example this may provide some insight into shard or other info.

Returns:

a ReservedBlockingHttpConnection.

Throws:

Exception - if a exception occurs during the reservation process.
