Release 4.1 ALPHA1
-------------------
HttpClient 4.1 ALPHA1 builds on the stable 4.0 release and adds several
functionality improvements and new features.
* Simplified configuration of connection managers.
* Persistence of authentication data between request executions within
the same execution context.
* Support for SPNEGO/Kerberos authentication scheme
* Support for transparent content encoding. Please note transparent content
encoding is not enabled per default in order to avoid conflicts with
already existing custom content encoding solutions.
* 5 to 10% performance increase due to elimination of unnecessary Log object
lookups by short-lived components.
Please note all methods and classes added in this release and marked as
4.1 are API unstable and can change in the future 4.1 ALPHA releases.
Changelog
-------------------
* [HTTPCLIENT-889] 'expect: continue' handshake disabled per default.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
* [HTTPCLIENT-862] Extended client's redirect handling interface to allow
control of the content of the redirect.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
* [HTTPCLIENT-872] HttpClient can now persist authentication data between request
executions as long as they share the same execution context. It has also become
much easier to make HttpClient authenticate preemptively by pre-populating
authentication data cache.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
* [HTTPCLIENT-883] SO_TIMEOUT is not reset on persistent (re-used) connections.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>

* [HTTPCLIENT-523] Support for SPNEGO authentication scheme.
Contributed by Matthew Stevenson <mavricknzwork at yahoo.com>

and maximum connection per route limits can be set using methods of
the class instead of HTTP parameters.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
* Added parameters to define the order of preference for supported auth
schemes for target host and proxy authentication.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
* [HTTPCLIENT-875] DefaultClientConnectionOperator#openConnection doesn't
update the connection state if the connection socket changed after
the call to SocketFactory#connectSocket().
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
* [HTTPCLIENT-834] Transparent content encoding support.
Contributed by James Abley <james.abley at gmail.com>
Release 4.0.1
-------------------
This is a bug fix release that addresses a number of issues discovered since
the previous stable release. None of the fixed bugs is considered critical.
Most notably this release eliminates eliminates dependency on JCIP annotations.
This release is also expected to improve performance by 5 to 10% due to
elimination of unnecessary Log object lookups by short-lived components.
Changelog
-------------------
* [HTTPCLIENT-895] Eliminated Log lookups in short lived objects impairing
performance.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
* [HTTPCLIENT-885] URLEncodedUtils now correctly parses form-url-encoded
entities that specify a charset.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>

* [HTTPCLIENT-883] SO_TIMEOUT is not reset on persistent (re-used) connections.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
* [HTTPCLIENT-882] Auth state is now correctly updated if a successful NTLM
authentication results in a redirect. This is a minor bug as HttpClient
manages to recover from the problem automatically.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
* [HTTPCLIENT-881] Fixed race condition in AbstractClientConnAdapter that makes
it possible for an aborted connection to be returned to the pool.
Contributed by Tim Boemker <tboemker at elynx.com> and
Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
* [HTTPCLIENT-866] Removed dependency on jcip-annotations.jar.
Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org>
and Sebastian Bazley <sebb at apache.org>
Release 4.0
-------------------
HttpClient 4.0 represents a complete, ground-up redesign and almost a complete
rewrite of the HttpClient 3.x codeline. This release finally addresses several
design flaws that existed since the 1.0 release and could not be fixed without
a major code overhaul and breaking API compatibility.
Architectural changes
---------------------
* Redesign of the HttpClient internals addressing all known major
architectural shortcomings of the 3.x codeline.
* Cleaner, more flexible and expressive API.
* More modular structure.
* Better performance and smaller memory footprint due to a more efficient HTTP
transport based on HttpCore.
* Implementation of cross-cutting HTTP protocol aspects through protocol
interceptors.
* Improved connection management, better handling of persistent connections,
support for stateful connections
* Pluggable redirect and authentication handlers.
* Improved support for sending requests via a proxy or a chain of proxies
* More flexible SSL context customization
* Reduced intermediate garbage in the process of generating HTTP requests
and parsing HTTP responses
Important notes
-------------------
* Future releases of HttpMime module may be binary incompatible with this
release due to possible API changes in Apache Mime4J. Apache Mime4J is
still being actively developed and its API is considered unstable.
* HttpClient 4.0 is not fully binary compatible with 4.0 BETA1 release.

made final in order to help ensure their thread safety:

4.0 Beta 1
-------------------
BETA1 release brings yet another round of API enhancements and
improvements in the area of connection management. Among the most notable
ones is the capability to handle stateful connections such as persistent
NTLM connections and private key authenticated SSL connections.
This is the first API stable release of HttpClient 4.0. All further
releases in the 4.0 code line will maintain API compatibility with this
release.
There has been a number of important bug fixes since ALPHA4. All upstream
projects are encouraged to upgrade to the latest release.
Please note HttpClient currently provides only limited support for NTLM
authentication. For details please see NTLM_SUPPORT.txt.

--------------------------------------
Release 4.0 Alpha 4
-------------------
ALPHA4 marks the completion of the overhaul of the connection management
code in HttpClient. All known shortcomings of the old HttpClient 3.x
connection management API have been addressed.
NTLM authentication remains the only missing major feature in the new
codeline that prevents us from moving awards the API freeze.
There has been a number of important bug fixes since ALPHA3. All upstream
projects are encouraged to upgrade to the latest release.
-------------------
HttpClient 3.x features that have NOT yet been ported:
-------------------
* NTLM authentication scheme

Contributed by Johannes Koch <johannes.koch at fit.fraunhofer.de>
--------------------------------------
Release 4.0 Alpha 3
-------------------
ALPHA3 release brings another round of API refinements and improvements in
functionality. As of this release HttpClient requires Java 5 compatible
runtime environment and takes full advantage of generics and new concurrency
primitives.
This release also introduces new default cookie policy that selects a cookie
specification depending on the format of cookies sent by the target host.
It is no longer necessary to know beforehand what kind of HTTP cookie support
the target host provides. HttpClient is now able to pick up either a lenient
or a strict cookie policy depending on the compliance level of the target host.
Another notable improvement is a completely reworked support for multipart
entities based on Apache mime4j library.

* Redesign of the HttpClient internals addressing all known
major architectural shortcomings of the 3.x codeline
* Cleaner, more flexible and expressive API
* Better performance and smaller memory footprint due to a more
efficient HTTP transport based on HttpCore. HttpClient 4.0 is
expected to be 10% to 25% faster than HttpClient 3.x codeline
* More modular structure
* Pluggable redirect and authentication handlers
* Support for protocol incerceptors
* Improved connection management
* Improved support for sending requests via a proxy or a chain of
