Hiranya Jayathilaka commented on SYNAPSE-992:
---------------------------------------------

I'm not entirely confident about this fix. All this content type inference code 
is guarded by an if condition right now:

if (expectEntityBody) {
  ...
}

So perhaps a better solution is to set the expectEntityBody to false to cover 
your scenario (Content-Length = 0; Content-Type = null;). This is a vert 
specific case, and we can easily check for it and set the boolean value to 
false early in the flow. Can you please look into that option please? Take a 
look at the TargetHandler#isResponseHaveBodyExpected() method.

> When there is no content type in the response synapse set the default content 
> type as "application/octet-stream".
> The HTTP Spec only talks about dealing with Content-Types and assuming 
> "application/ocet-stream" for messages, containing an entity-body [1]. As we 
> are not providing an entity body, the ESB should not infer a Content-Type.
> Instead of, the ESB just should pass through the response to the client 
> without adding a Content-Type.
