Hi Mohammad Thanks for the feedback. See my comments below:

The real problem is that HttpClient API uses this kind of approach in several instances agent.getState().setCredentials(...) agent.getHostConfiguration().setHost(...) to name a few. If this approach is to be changed, it should be done consistently across the entire HttpClient API > 2) The deprecated set parameter methods in HttpClient seem to set the > parameters on the connection manager.
