             Summary: PostHttp will always use Chunked Encoding
                 Key: NIFI-1396
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1396
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Joseph Percivall
            Priority: Minor


The PostHttp processor has a boolean property for whether to set the chunked 
flag (header "Transfer-Encoding"). Even if the property is set to false the 
content will always be chunked because the content is streamed and the content 
length is not known. Comment on setting the chunked flag: 

Note that the chunked setting is a hint only.
     * If using HTTP/1.0, chunking is never performed.
     * Otherwise, even if chunked is false, HttpClient must
     * use chunk coding if the entity content length is
     * unknown (-1).

The processor needs to properly enable the chunking option which will require 
determining the length of the content.
