How to set timeout in Spring WebServiceTemplate

Question

Answer 1

If you want that kind of control, you can

• either switch to CommonsHttpMessageSender, which uses the Jakarta Commons HttpClient
• or subclass HttpUrlConnectionMessageSender and in the prepareConnection(HttpURLConnection) method call UrlConnection.setReadTimeOut(int)
