Motivation:
If a response is canceled at the connection level (skipping explicit
closure of the connection in
LoadBalancedStreamingHttpClient
), it willhang in a half-closed state (inbound closed) if the server doesn't proceed
with sending more bytes on that connection (outbound will never be
closed). Also, cancellation marks the connection as
CHANNEL_CLOSED_INBOUND
, which is misleading because the closure isinitiated by the client.
Modifications:
ResponseCancelTest
to verify the described scenario;NettyChannelPublisher
to close both outbound (first, tocorrectly mark the connection close reason) and inbound;
Result:
Canceled HTTP/1.x connection is always closed correctly.
