some request headers may be added twice
---------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-3839
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-3839
Project: Geronimo
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Components: AsyncHttpClient
Affects Versions: 1.x
Reporter: Sangjin Lee
Assignee: Rick McGuire
Priority: Minor
Some request headers get special treatment by HttpRequestEncoder.
HttpRequestEncoder does not make any effort in checking to see if they are
present in the headers already. As a result, they may be added twice if one is
not careful. For example,
- Content-Type & Content-Length are added by HttpRequestEncoder for POST
requests, and should not be added by callers.
- Host & User-Agent are always added by HttpRequestEncoder, and should not be
added by callers as ordinary headers.
Although one could argue that callers should not add these headers by hand, I
think HttpRequestEncoder still should ensure that they are not added twice.
