Question

friends,

I’m running into an issue when i try to call webservice and the server/internet is not available. It appears that the
connection is taking a long time to timeout

can i set timout manually to show error messgage to user?

any help would be appreciated.

Set up your HttpClient this way.

    BasicHttpParams httpParams = new BasicHttpParams();
    ConnManagerParams.setTimeout(httpParams, connectionTimeoutInMs);
    httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParams);
