Gabriel Commeau updated FLUME-2333:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: FLUME-2333-4.diff
I’m done with this patch: I modified the unit test (and added one test case),
as well as the documentation.
Please feel free to modify it further, but as far as I’m concerned, this is
ready to go.

> Existing HTTP source handlers recieve events via a HTTPServletRequest. This
> works, but because the handler doesn't have access to the
> HTTPServletResponse, there is no ability to return a response. This makes it
> unsuitable for some sort of protocol that relies on bidirectional
> communication.
> My solution: In addition to the existing HTTPSource interface, I've added a
> BidirectionalHTTPSource interface that is provided the servlet response as a
> parameter. I've made some changes in the HTTP source allow for both types to
> co-exist, and my changes shouldn't affect anyone who is already using the
> existing interface.
> Also includes minor documentation updates to reflect this.
