Verifying CXF HttpAsyncClient use of use.async.http.conduit contextual property

问题

I am trying to make use of the CXF asynchronous HTTP client transport, through setting the "use.async.http.conduit" property, as detailed in this thread, and recommended by this CXF article.

I do that using the following code:

Client client = ClientProxy.getClient(wsClient);
client.getRequestContext().put("use.async.http.conduit", Boolean.TRUE);

As it happens, my web service call is timing out (probably due to some environmental network issue), and my client exception contains (extract):

java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out
    at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:129)
    at java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill(BufferedInputStream.java:218)

    at org.apache.cxf.transport.AbstractConduit.close(AbstractConduit.java:56)
    at org.apache.cxf.transport.http.HTTPConduit.close(HTTPConduit.java:623)

The exception stack above suggests that the java.net.HttpURLConnection class is still in use and that based on the CXF documentation the setting has not taken effect.

What I am trying to figure out is how to ensure that the "use.async.http.conduit" has taken effect, i.e. is there a particular behaviour that can be tested, or a particular log config that I can enable on the client that would undoubtedly tell me the Apache HttpAsyncClient is in use?

Many thanks :)

I just found the answer to my question, inspired by more reading of the CXF documentation, and of a useful blog.

So first how to identify whether the default Java transport client or the Apache async transport client is used:

In addition to the code I was using (see question)

Client client = ClientProxy.getClient(wsClient);
client.getRequestContext().put("use.async.http.conduit", Boolean.TRUE);

I added the following:

HTTPConduit conduit = (HTTPConduit)client.getConduit();
System.out.println(conduit.getClass().getName());

This initially produced

org.apache.cxf.transport.http.URLConnectionHTTPConduit

which told me the setting was not working. That is when, after reading more of the CXF documentation, I realised I was missing a dependency (library on my classpath): cxf-rt-transports-http-hc. So I added the library in my maven dependencies:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
    <artifactId>cxf-rt-transports-http-hc</artifactId>
    <version>${cxf.version}</version>
</dependency>

then retried my code, and the output was now instead:

org.apache.cxf.transport.http.asyncclient.AsyncHTTPConduit

Voilà!
