Folks, I have just checked in an example showing the new HttpRequestExecutor based API. Feel free to check it out and let me know what you think:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/httpclient/trunk/http- common/src/examples/org/apache/http/examples/HttpRequestExecutorDemo.java There's no longer any need to subclass standard HTTP methods in order to add a common aspect to some or all types of HTTP requests. Just implement the required functionality as a request / response interceptor and add it to the request executor. As far as I am concerned http-common is almost feature complete. Basically only two areas need substantial work: (1) proxy and SSL tunneling support and (2) what I (for the lack of better term) call a service discovery framework, that is, a means for object factories to look up a concrete implementation of a public interface such as HttpDataTransmitter, HttpClientConnection, and so on. There are several options that need to be discussed on this list as I suspect this particular issue may become quite a contentious one. Besides that, there are still a number of smaller issues here and there which I plan to tackle in the coming days/weeks. Overall, however, the http-common API can be considered finished in broad strokes. So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE start reviewing.
