Summary: PostHTTP does not always honor chunked encoding setting
Key: NIFI-21
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-21
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Joseph Witt
Post http does not always honor chunked encoding setting.
>From the apache commons documentation regarding the 'setChunked' boolean value,
"public void setChunked(boolean b)
specifies 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 length is unknown (-1).
The default implementation sets the value of the chunked attribute."
It is believed that the Entity Content Length must be set for the chunked flag
to be respected.
