Hi folks,
In high latency environments a client SSLSocket with autoClose set to false
can hang indefinitely if it does not correctly recieve a close_notify
from the server.
In order to rectify this situation I would like to suggest that we
implement an integer JDK property (jdk.tls.closeRetries) which instructs
waitForClose to attempt the close no more times than the value of the
property. I would also suggest that 5 is a reasonable default.
Note: each attempt times out based on the value of
Socket.setSoTimeout(int timeout).
Also, the behaviour here is similar to that of waitForClose() when
autoClose is set to true, less the retries.
