net/http/client: how to distinguish connection timeout or response timeout

[tomor]

Can you describe more broadly the problem you are trying to solve?
Why do you need to distinguish connection timeout from response timeout?

[wrztye]

I'm working on an RPC framework.
If the connection timeouts, I can try again.
If the response timeouts, I can't retry. Because the request may have been sent.

Hi there,
We have decided that our experiment to allow questions on the issue tracker has not had the outcome we desired, so I am closing this issue. I'm sorry that we can't answer your question here.

There are many other methods to get help if you're still curious:

• Stack Overflow with questions tagged "go"

• The Go Forum, a web-based forum

• Gophers Slack, use the invite app for access. The #general channel is a good starting point.

• Go Community on Hashnode with questions and posts tagged with "go"

• The golang-nuts mailing list

• IRC channel #go-nuts on Freenode

Thanks
