In a very large project I am a senior on, I use to be using HTTPClient v0.3-3 (www.innovation.ch/java/HTTPClient/).

b) After looking at the code to try to fix the problem, not only did I give up trying to fix the problem, but I also gave up on the product :)

Yes, I went through exactly the same process. I needed preemptive authorization which turned out to be a nightmare to add to the innovation HTTPClient but oh so easy to add to Jakarta HttpClient.

I want to point out that I encountered bug 13463 early on, and after reading the bugzilla db, I tried the patch attached to the end of it. I would just like to give my vote to include it into CVS, as it fixes the problem (bug 13463) perfectly.

Its a pretty good sign when you start using a new product and they already have fixes for some of the bugs you find! The development team here working on HttpClient is better than any other team I have been involved with in my corporate life.

As for bug 16458, I have fixed it.

It was a rather simple bug, and can be reproduced by closing the server side socket while the client is still waiting for a response. This will cause the client to take 100% cpu, and it will do so for ever and ever.


Its great you made that connection which would have gone unnoticed. I would probablly have had to mark that bug as "works for me" otherwise as it was apparently inadvertently fixed.

I have another bugfix that I will post in my next message.


Looking forward to it.

HttpClient release prime.
