Hi, I have a question which involves both the code and the validity of an HTTP message. I am using httpcore-4.2.3. I receive from a client an HTTP (HTTP/1.1) request with the following headers: Content-type: text/xml Host: some host User-agent: UA Connection: keep-alive Accept: text/xml Content-Length: 109
The entity is a an xml of of length of 109 bytes. At the end of the xml there are two extra bytes with the value of 0x0d and 0xoa (/r/n), these bytes are the 110'th and 111'th bytes. In my code I call: *EntityUtils.toString(entity, "UTF-8");* at the end of the handling of the request my server returns 200-OK to the client. the problem is that after I finish handling the request, the connection is still open and I call *httpService.handleRequest(conn, context);* This call sees the two extra bytes and returns 400-Bad request to the sender. Now my question are: 1. As far as I know when the Content-Length header is present it determines the length of the entity body, so actually the message I get is a bad message. 2. Is there something I can do in my code to make it accept this message? Will calling *EntityUtils.consume(entity)* help? Thanks, Nir
