Class StreamLimitException

java.net.http.StreamLimitException

All Implemented Interfaces:: Serializable

public final class StreamLimitException extends IOException

An exception raised when the limit imposed for stream creation on an HTTP connection is reached, and the client is unable to create a new stream.

A StreamLimitException may be raised when attempting to send a new request on any protocol version that supports multiplexing on a single connection. Both HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 allow multiplexing concurrent requests to the same server on a single connection. Each request/response exchange is carried over a single stream, as defined by the corresponding protocol.

Whether and when a StreamLimitException may be relayed to the code initiating a request/response exchange is implementation and protocol version dependent.
