Spring StreamingResponseBody Request Thread not cleared when client closes connection

I have an endpoint in a controller that returns StreamingResponseBody

which is used to send a file to the client. The code for this looks something like this:

@RestController
@RequestMapping(value="api")
public class Controller {
    static class GetContentResponse implements StreamingResponseBody {

        @Override
        public void writeTo(OutputStream outputStream) throws IOException {
            while (!finished) {
                try {
                    byte[] chunk = <get next chunk>;
                    outputStream.write(chunk);
                } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                    throw new RuntimeException("Interrupted!", e);
                }
            }
            outputStream.close();
        }
    }


    @RequestMapping(value = "/{id}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
    public ResponseEntity<StreamingResponseBody> get(@PathVariable(value = "id") String id)
        throws FaultResponse, InterruptedException {

        GetContentResponse getContentResponse = new GetContentResponse();

        HttpHeaders header = new HttpHeaders();

        return new ResponseEntity<>(getContentResponse, header, HttpStatus.OK);
    }
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

I am setting a timeout for asynchronous requests via:

@Configuration
public class AsyncConfiguration extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {
    @Override
    public void configureAsyncSupport(AsyncSupportConfigurer configurer) {
        configurer.setDefaultTimeout(5000);
    }
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

If the client cancels the request, the thread for the response hangs, does not disconnect or flush. Stream tags stack:

How can I make sure the threads are properly destroyed when the client disconnects?
