Unecessary logging on DELETE on 404s
------------------------------------

                 Key: ABDERA-144
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ABDERA-144
             Project: Abdera
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.4.0
            Reporter: Remy Gendron


target: AbstractEntityCollectionAdapter.deleteEntry(String, RequestContext)

If the resource does not exist, throw new ResponseContextException(404) will 
generate logging at the INFO level. The exception is not an error but used to 
control program flow. As Dan says:

OK. I think the right fix is to:
1. Log the ResponseContextExceptions at DEBUG if status code < 500. 
(Could've sworn I did this before...)
2. Fix the client side of it so it returns a SUCCESS on 404 and DELETE

But, James correctly says:

404 is a client error as defined by RFC 2616.  Defining it as a SUCCESS would 
be a bug and would break existing code.  For 404,
getType() should return CLIENT_ERROR and the client needs to check the status 
code.

Thus, my initial report that SUCCESS should be returned was wrong.

Only the logging issue need be fixed.

Thanks.

Remy
