Hi,
I have to know the state of the HTTP method to get the response before a
retry is caused by redirection or authentication. I'd like to use
HttpClient's built-in redirection and authentication handling. So I
thought about having a listener for the
org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector looking like this:
public interface HttpMethodDirectorListener
{
public void connection(HttpConnection connection);
public void retriedMethod(HttpMethod method);
}
HttpMethodDirector would notify its listeners in executeMethod(final
HttpMethod method):
* about the connection before
this.executeWithRetry(method);
* and about a retried method before
if (this.processRedirectResponse(method))
and before
if (processAuthenticationResponse(method))
The listeners would be added/removed via HttpClient and handed over to
the HttpMethodDirector in the HttpMethodDirector's constructor.
Are you interested in this idea? Or is there a simpler way to do it?
