Re: [platform-dev] Concerns about org.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.

FYI,

I did some more debugging and I really feel this is a server problem.  I.e., I believe the server is dropping connections while the headers from those connections indicate the connection can be kept alive indefinitely.

I opened the following Bugzilla with the details if you're interested:

I think you might lose https connections over http proxies that require

basic authentication unless you set a particular system property. See

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8210814 and

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=549832 . I presume the

Java 11 HttpClient will behave the same in that respect.
