Implement a way to override or resolve DNS entries defined in the OS
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HTTPCLIENT-1123
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1123
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: HttpClient
Reporter: Alin Vasile
Priority: Minor
When working with HttpClient in restrictive environments, where the user
doesn't have the permissisions to edit the local /etc/hosts file or the DNS
configuration, can be eased with an DNS Overrider capability.
This can be useful with JMeter which can follow redirects automatically and
resolve some of the redirected hosts against its configuration. Another example
is a custom forward proxy, written in Java and based on httpclient, which can
be deployed is such a restricted environment that would ease the development of
various web solutions for some developers.
