This project is no longer supported by Erlang Solutions. Instead, they recommend using shotgun or fusco.
We actually really like lhttpc and are happy with it. We'll maintain a repo for it until we run into limitations (we haven't so far).
For versions > 1.2.5, lhttpc is built using rebar. There is still a Makefile
with some of the old make targets, such as all, doc, test etc. for those who prefer that. The Makefile
will however just call rebar.
connection_timeout
: The time (in milliseconds) the client will try to kepp a HTTP/1.1 connection open. Changing this value in runtime has no effect, this can however be done throughlhttpc_manager:update_connection_timeout/1
