Hi,

I have a few question related to Axis and HTTP 1.1 

Does Axis 1.1 support HTTP 1.1, more specifically
persistent connections and pipelines?

I can see from earlier posting to this group that you
are recommended to use the Commons HTTPClient library
to use the HTTP 1.1 connection control features. The
Axis change log states that "CommonsHTTPSender updated
to use Jakarta Commons's HTTPClient 2.0 RC3" which
appears to support HTTP 1.1 Persistent connections. 
Does this mean that Axis 1.1 SOAP client will
automatically take advantage of the Peristent
Connection and Pipelines or does this has to "hand
programmed" into the application?  Earlier postings to
this news group suggests that Axis 1.1 only support
HTTP 1.0. 

The HTTP 1.1 internet standard states clearly that
HTTP 1.0 client will not be allowed to take advantage
of a persistent connection through a Proxy.  The Proxy
will ignore "keep-alive" signal from a HTTP 1.0
client.  Is this correctly understood?  

Is it possible for an Axis 1.1 Client to use
HTTPClient to set up a HTTPS 1.1 Persistent connection
(HTTP over SSL) through one or more proxies (assuming
that the proxies support HTTP 1.1)?

Great if anybody which has this knowledge would reply!

Best regards,
Helge
