ssl persistent connection

[Sektor]

Hi soap4r,
I am trying to get an SSL persistent connection between two separate
calls to two different web service methods.
I mean that between the calls to the web service methods the ssl
connection must not be closed.

Unfortunately I cannot modify the server (it is not an open source
software) :-(

I tried to add the "Connection: keep-alive" http header with the
SOAP::Filter::StreamHandler but without success.

Any ideas on how I can solve the issue?
Ciao
