duplicate code for redirection

           Summary: duplicate code for redirection
           Product: Commons
           Version: 2.0 Milestone 1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: HttpClient
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Hello,

I have encountered some strange things according following redirects. Since a
few days a log message has been added:
"(HttpMethodBase.java:882) - Redirect requested but followRedirects is disabled"
For me this message is really strange, because every server side redirection
works and I get the expected result at the client. Only the test for the start
page (It's a XUL application and we test server side, whether it's a Mozilla
browser or not.) failed. I found out that this is because of the lost header
information when follow redirects is set to false. So the useragent is reset to
"Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/2.0M1".

For me this seems to be a bit buggy. In HttpMethodBase.processRedirectResponse()
it is asked for getFollowRedirects(), but not at HttpMultiClient.executeMethod():

(starts at line 323)

if (status == HttpStatus.SC_MOVED_PERMANENTLY
    || status == HttpStatus.SC_MOVED_TEMPORARILY
    || status == HttpStatus.SC_SEE_OTHER
    || status == HttpStatus.SC_TEMPORARY_REDIRECT) {

    /* header "location" handling snipped */

    return executeMethod(method);   <<=========
}

executeMethod() is processed recursively.

Can somebody have a look on it? It's not so important, because you can
explicitely set followRedirects to true and everything works ok. But when it's
not set (=> default = false), redirects shell not be followed.
