HTTPSession¶

[Source]

An HTTP Session is the external API to the communication link between client and server. A session can only transfer one message at a time in each direction. The client and server each have their own ways of implementing this interface, but to application code (either in the client or in the server 'back end') this interface provides a common view of how information is passed into the http package.

Close the connection from this end.
