How to set the timeout for socket when looking for host?

问题

In my unit test, I use commons httpclient to request a incorrect remote web site, and the max timeout is:

@Test(timeout = 10000)
public void should_not_be_accessible_if_configuration_is_incorrect() throws Exception {
     // use httpclient to visit an invalid remote http web site
}

But it may throw such an exception in some computers:

java.lang.Exception: test timed out after 10000 milliseconds

Seems it's blocking on the method: java.net.Inet4AddressImpl.lookupAllHostAddr()

I wonder is there any way to set a max timeout for it?

回答1:

You can control Java's DNS timeouts via the timeout properties described here:

com.example.jndi.dns.timeout.initial
com.example.jndi.dns.timeout.retries
