Michael Osipov created HTTPCLIENT-1603:
------------------------------------------
Summary: ClientProtocolException contradicts tutorial statement
Key: HTTPCLIENT-1603
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1603
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation, HttpClient
Affects Versions: 4.4 Beta1, 4.3.6
Reporter: Michael Osipov
[Chapter
1.4|http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/fundamentals.html#d5e271]
says: "HttpClient can throw two types of exceptions: java.io.IOException in
case of an I/O failure such as socket timeout or an socket reset and
HttpException that signals an HTTP failure such as a violation of the HTTP
protocol. Usually I/O errors are considered non-fatal and recoverable, whereas
HTTP protocol errors are considered fatal and cannot be automatically recovered
from."
The
[Javadoc|http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/httpclient/apidocs/org/apache/http/client/ClientProtocolException.html]
of {{ClientProtocolException}} says: "Signals an error in the HTTP protocol."
Given the definition established in the tutorial, either one is incorrect.
Either {{ClientProtocolException}} must derive from {{HttpException}} or its
documentation must be contrary to the latter.
