Michael Osipov commented on HTTPCLIENT-1508:
--------------------------------------------

Oleg,

what about using 
[{{VersionInfo#getUserAgent}}|https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-core-ga/httpcore/xref/org/apache/http/util/VersionInfo.html#316]?

I can simply provide a patch for that?

> Default user agent should reflect the Java version used and not compiled

> Currently, the dafault user agent looks like this:
> {noformat}
> DEFAULT_USER_AGENT = "Apache-HttpClient/" + release + " (java 1.5)"
> {noformat}
> This indicates that Java 1.5 is used but this is the compile target of HTTP 
> Client.
> A better user agent would be:
> {noformat}
> DEFAULT_USER_AGENT = "Apache-HttpClient/" + release + " (Java " + javaVersion 
> ")"
> {noformat}
> where {{javaVersion}} is the version where the client is currently running.
