Connection Timeouts with HttpBuilder

HttpBuilderTimeouts.groovy

import groovyx.net.http.HTTPBuilder
import static groovyx.net.http.ContentType.*
import static groovyx.net.http.Method.*

int TENSECONDS  = 10*1000;
int THIRTYSECONDS = 30*1000;

HTTPBuilder builder = new HTTPBuilder('http://www.axeda.com')

//HTTPBuilder has no direct methods to add timeouts.  We have to add them to the HttpParams of the underlying HttpClient
builder.getClient().getParams().setParameter("http.connection.timeout", new Integer(TENSECONDS))
builder.getClient().getParams().setParameter("http.socket.timeout", new Integer(THIRTYSECONDS))

try
{
  //Simply get the contents of http://www.axeda.com and log it to the Custom Object Log
  builder.request(GET, TEXT){
    response.success = { resp, res ->
      res.readLines().each {
        logger.info it
      }      
    }    
  }
} 
finally 
{
  //Make sure to always shut down the HTTPBuilder when you’re done with it
  builder.shutdown()
}

return true

Great, thanks!.
