Changes since 4.0 Alpha 3 ------------------- * [HTTPCLIENT-757] Improved request wrapping in the DefaultClientRequestDirector. This also fixed the problem with the default proxy set at the client level having no effect. Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski * [HTTPCLIENT-734] Request abort will unblock the thread waiting for a connection Contributed by Sam Berlin * [HTTPCLIENT-759] Ensure release of connections back to the connection manager on exceptions. Contributed by Sam Berlin * [HTTPCLIENT-759] DefaultClientRequestDirector now releases connections back to the connection manager on exceptions. Contributed by Sam Berlin * [HTTPCLIENT-758] Fixed the use of generics in AbstractHttpClient #removeRequestInterceptorByClass and #removeResponseInterceptorByClass Contributed by Johannes Koch * [HTTPCLIENT-749] HttpParams beans Contributed by Stojce Dimski * [HTTPCLIENT-755] Workaround for known bugs in java.net.URI.resolve() Bug ID: 4708535 Contributed by Johannes Koch 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. ------------------- HttpClient 3.x features that have NOT yet been ported: ------------------- * NTLM authentication scheme ------------------- Changelog: ------------------- * [HTTPCLIENT-742] common interface for HttpRoute and RouteTracker Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-741] Fixed concurrency issues in AbstractClientConnAdapter. Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski * [HTTPCLIENT-726] testcase for spurious wakeups in ThreadSafeClientConnManager Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-643] Automatic connect fail-over for multi-home remote servers. Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski * [HTTPCLIENT-735] unsetting of DEFAULT_PROXY and FORCED_ROUTE in hierarchies Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-723] route planner based on java.net.ProxySelector Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-740] don't start connection GC thread in pool constructor Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-736] route planners use SchemeRegistry instead of ConnManager Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-730] Fixed rewriting of URIs containing escaped characters Contributed by Sam Berlin and Oleg Kalnichevski * [HTTPCLIENT-667] Added 'Meta' cookie policy that selects a cookie specification depending on the format of the cookie(s). Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski * [HTTPCLIENT-729] Move HttpRoute and related classes to routing package. Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-725] Use TimeUnit arguments for timeouts in connection manager. Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-677] Connection manager no longer uses Thread.interrupt(). Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-716] Allow application-defined routes. Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-712] Improve HttpRoute API Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-711] Bad route computed for redirected requests Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski * [HTTPCLIENT-715] Remove RoutedRequest from API Contributed by Roland Weber * [HTTPCLIENT-705] Fixed incorrect handling of URIs with null path component. Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski * [HTTPCLIENT-688] HttpOptions#getAllowedMethods can now handle multiple Allow headers.

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. The HttpClient 4.0 API is still very experimental and is bound to change during the course of the ALPHA development phase. Several important features have not yet been ported to the new API. Architectural changes --------------------- * 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 proxies * Improved handling redirects of entity enclosing requests * More flexible SSL context customization * Reduced intermediate garbage in the process of generating HTTP requests and parsing HTTP responses ------------------- HttpClient 3.x features that have NOT yet been ported ------------------- * NTLM authentication scheme * RFC2965 cookie policy (Cookie2) * Support for multipart MIME coded entities ------------------- Changelog ------------------- The following is a list of contributions tracked in JIRA. Note that this is not a complete list of contributions or changes. Since the API was redesigned completely, tracking everything outside of the source code repository would have been too burdensome. * [HTTPCLIENT-655] User-Agent string no longer violates RFC Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski * [HTTPCLIENT-541] Virtual host API redesign Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski * [HTTPCLIENT-614] Allow for different strategies when checking CN of x509 certificates Contributed by Julius Davies * [HTTPCLIENT-136] Fixed inadequate proxy support Long standing architectural problem.
