Karl Wright created SOLR-5590:
---------------------------------

             Summary: SolrJ is still on httpcomponents/httpclient version 
4.2.x, which has some problems
                 Key: SOLR-5590
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5590
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 4.5.1
            Reporter: Karl Wright


SolrJ depends on HttpClient 4.2.x right now, but HttpClient 4.2.x has issues 
that the ManifoldCF team encountered with handling of form data encoding - 
issues which are addressed in HttpClient 4.3.x.  We developed a local patch, 
but Solr will eventually need to go to the new client.  (ManifoldCF would plan 
to follow shortly thereafter).

I tried to get Oleg (PMC chair of HttpComponents) to agree to port the fixed 
code to the 4.2.x stream but he did not want to do that.  So I believe that 
that avenue is closed.

See CONNECTORS-623 for a detailed description of the problem.
