Hi, The documentation of the camel-ahc component (http://camel.apache.org/ahc.html ) says:
"Message Body Camel will store the HTTP response from the external server on the OUT body. All headers from the IN message will be copied to the OUT message, so headers are preserved during routing. Additionally Camel will add the HTTP response headers as well to the OUT message headers." However this is not how it is implemented: A new (empty) DefaultMessage will be created in the DefaultAhcBinding.onStatusReceived() method by calling exchange.getOut(). Afterwards only the HTTP-Response and the incoming HTTP headers are set to the out message. I discussed this with Aki Yoshida and he believes that the implemented behavior is the correct one as otherwise request and response messages would be mixed. >From my perspective both approaches make sense, however the documentation and >the implementation should match. So either the line >(exchange.getOut().setHeaders(exchange.getIn().getAllHeaders());) should be >added to the DefaultBinding.onStatusReceived() method, or the documentation >should be adapted like "... OUT body. Camel will replace the OUT message >headers by the HTTP response headers, so headers are not preserved during >routing." What do you think. Best regards Stephan
