I have a REST API which is being consumed by java script front end ( angular ).

When my REST API endpoint is invoked the API in turn needs to make a call to a SOAP webservice .

The client jar for the soap service is in classpath.

REST service is running in Jetty and Open JDK 1.8 .

SOAP web service is hosted separately details of which I do not possess other than end point and wsdl etc .

Everything is working fine .

One of the requirements is for the REST API to timeout in 5 seconds.

Sometimes the SOAP endpoint takes about 10 seconds to respond.

So ideally the REST endpoint should time out after 5 seconds but it never does.

It keeps waiting for the SOAP service to respond so whatever is the response time of the SOAP service determines REST API response.

Please do not suggest asynchronous calls - the aim is to make the SOAP client call to the SOAP web service timeout.

Have tried a number of options to set the timeout. See below options found over the internet.
Unfortunately none of them work :

Get QName
Create Service from QName
GetPort
Map<String,Object> context = ((BindingProvider)port).getRequestContext();
context.put("javax.xml.ws.service.endpoint.address",https wsdl location");

/** try and timeout after 5 seconds - NOT working **/
/** option 1 **/
context.put("com.sun.xml.internal.ws.request.timeout", "5000");
context.put("com.sun.xml.internal.ws.connect.timeout","5000");

/** option 2 **/
context.put("javax.xml.ws.client.receiveTimeout", "5000");
context.put("javax.xml.ws.client.connectionTimeout","5000");

/** option 3 **/
context.put("com.sun.xml.ws.request.timeout", "5000");
context.put("com.sun.xml.ws.connect.timeout","5000");

None of these work.
Somewhere on the internet someone had suggested the following which also did not work:

context.put("timeout","10");

NOTE: above options have been tried one at a time. Havent put all of them together in one go !

Does anyone have any pointers ?

If it helps I am using soap client jar - wsclient_extended.jar
To sum up : soap client running in Jetty with Open JDK 1.8 .
Thanks
