Hello, Unless there is NOGO on this, I'll be committing the patch provided tomorrow on issue:
- https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=59038 To recap, we deprecated HC3.1 in 3.0 and announced it would be removed in 3.1 but we didn't remove it. The only little issue I see in dropping it, is that we didn't deprecate (by error) SOAP/XML-RPC Request: - http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_ reference.html#SOAP/XML-RPC_Request <http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#SOAP/XML-RPC_Request> although we wrote: - See Building a WebService Test Plan <http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/build-ws-test-plan.html> for up to date way of test SOAP and REST Webservices But I'm personally in favor of dropping it for 3.2 as the only remaining issue was the missing Pre-Emptive Basic Auth which has now been fixed in HC4.
