Mark Miller commented on SOLR-8887:
-----------------------------------

I have completed this change as part of SOLR-4509.

It basically moves us off the deprecated classes. It would be nice to 
completely abstract out the plugin API from HttpClient classes, but that seems 
like a stretch to accomplish well and maintain over internal refactorings. For 
now, I've just moved us to non deprecated classes and also limited the surface 
area of HttpClient that we expose.

I think we can expose some internals to users like this, but they just will 
have to expect to keep up with changes to API's between releases. I do think 
the work in SOLR-4509 is likely to be able to stay stable a long time though.

> Solr Security features cannot export the internal, deprecated 
> DefaultHttpClient class as part of their user facing API.

> Seems security now really depends on HttpClientConfigurer. That class was 
> only used for tests previously, and was at best completely unsupported. We 
> can't promise an API that locks us into an internal, low level, class from a 
> lib. Especially a deprecated one. Solr wants to own the http layer, not get 
> locked into impls.
> We need to stop using DefaultHttpClient, and it's going to break this stuff.
