i've noted that fphttpclient has a DefaultTimeout of 15 minutes... how can i close the connection after all data is received?

the server is configured to keep-alive.

"AddHeader(fieldConnection,'close');" works but i want/need to use keep-alive and then close the connection afterwards instead of waiting for the program to timeout in 15 minutes or when the server closes the connection...

That should happen by itself ?
Keeping the connection open is currently not supported.

The DefaultTimeOut is definitely not a property of the http client.

oh... ok... when i get a URL, the program sits long after the file has arrived... i assume it is stuck or something in the GET routine... i've been having to CTRL-C to stop the program and i don't see the returned headers at that point... the output file is properly written...

when i

   AddHeader(fieldConnection,'close');

it terminates the GET as soon as the file has arrived and the headers are shown... the server being tested against has keep-alive on by default...

The DefaultTimeOut is definitely not a property of the http client.

i thought it was used in some routines for connecting and receiving data... my bad...
