ServicePoint.ConnectionLeaseTimeout throws NotImplementedException

[ddobrev]

It's currently added but not implemented - I use it in a Xamarin.Forms project. This property is crucial for optimal work with HttpClient: http://www.nimaara.com/2016/11/01/beware-of-the-net-httpclient/, https://byterot.blogspot.bg/2016/07/singleton-httpclient-dns.html. There also exists a related issue for .NET Core at https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/issues/11224.

Could you point to where it throws? In .NET Core it just is a no op.

I linked that issue as an example. My own issue is about .NET Standard. Just create a Xamarin.Forms application and try using the property.

Can confirm the same behavior when I tried using a .NET Standard Forms project

The Xamarin documentation clearly indicates that ConnectionLeaseTimeout is supported, but I'm also getting the same runtime exception that it's not implemented.

@marek-safar or @akoeplinger, could you take a look at this?

[akoeplinger]

We made a change to no longer throw NotImplementedException and instead do the no-op like .NET Core. We'll take a look at whether we can implement the real behavior but in the meantime at least we're consistent with .NET Core.

Thanks!
