Hello,



I hate asking this type of stuff on the -dev list, but it looks like jakarta-commons 
doesn't exist any more.



This API doesn't make sense to me:

To get the value of a HTTP response header (e.g. 'text/html' part in 'Content-type: 
text/html' header) I have to do this:



Header header = ....

header.getValues()[0].getName();



Wouldn't it make more sense to call getValue() instead of getName()?





Also, it looks like HTTP Client is super strict and throws HttpException when it 
encounters responses such as these two:



$ GET -S -e -d www.ananzi.co.za

GET http://www.ananzi.co.za --> 200 OK

The HttpException message is:

"Error in parsing the status line from the response: null"



What is it not getting that it needs?



Thanks,

Otis
