Reusing HTTP connections

(Sorry for the repost; this time I am starting a new thread instead of replying to an existing thread. Please keep any replies on this thread.)

We've written a bunch of code that relies on NSURLConnection etc. to download files via HTTP. It works well. We're trying to modify it to do two things:

1 - Get byte ranges from a file instead of getting the whole file all at once. We found that this was possible by calling addValue:forHTTPHeaderField: and specifying a Range field. It seemed to work well.

2 - Reuse the same network connection to download several ranges in sequence, instead of disconnecting and reconnecting for each download. Is this supported at all? _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
