I have almost started moving code of PostMethod.generateRequestBody(NameValuePair[]) to URIUtils class, but there's one point that made me reconsider. Currently URIUtils does not know any HttpClient specific classes and that sort of makes sense. I am not sure if we should make URIUtils be

The local and webapp tests are fine here (except that one timeout issue that has been around for a while). There are a few things that could be tweaked, but please submit the patch so we can all benefit from it. Very high quality, great work! Jandalf Kalnichevski, Oleg wrote: Bug fixes:

It would be nice to have the javadoc generated for jakarta projects to link internally to the actual Sun core api documentation. This was easily accomplished with ant, but I'm not sure how to do that with maven. It would probablly be nice to have a set of core javadoc for various java

I think that HttpClient was the last list to be partitioned. We are quite happy with it. The issue that remains is with voting. We are still part of commons and still want voting input from commons in general. A *commons-vote* list would be very excellent in helping keep us all together on

HttpClient. As of the 2.0 Alpha 2 release, the maven checkstyle plugin produced about 2500 style violations. We created a task to clean this up by the beta release, and Mike has taken on this task. There are a few other coding conventions used in other Jakarta projects, as well as other

Re: Checkstyle problems

Yes. It started when I added the checkstyle.properties file. I don't know why maven started handing off the html files to checkstyle, and tried to fix it with those specific properties but they had no effect. The report still generates OK, so I had not yet pursued it further. Mike Bowler

I propose that we change the pattern for instance variables to ^_?[a-z][a-zA-Z0-9]*$ so that we will allow leading underscores but will not insist on it. Uuuugh, please no! Besides being ugly, it's worth sticking to the Sun coding style (as is the default with checkstyle). That way,

Hey Mike, A couple issues with the patch. The tests failed due to a change to the parameters member in HeaderElement. A protected member was made to be private and given an accessor. I think that this is a good change, but patches should pass the tests before they are posted. The tests were

Well, its related to the NTLM support in HttpClient. A few tests fail, but I would suspect any NTLM use in 1.3 would fail similarly. Most of the httpclient guys have been working on 1.4 (I did the release build in 1.4) and the gump builds don't fail so I guess its using 1.4 as well. I've
