Specify connection timeout in java.nio
- by miorel
Using non-blocking I/O, the code for connecting to a remote address looks something like:
SocketChannel channel = SelectorProvider.provider().openSocketChannel();
channel.configureBlocking(false);
channel.connect(address);
The connection process will then have to be finished by invoking finishConnect() on the channel when some selector says the corresponding key isConnectable().
Is there a way to specify the connection timeout when using this idiom?
