Rick McGuire commented on GERONIMO-3839:
----------------------------------------
It seems like HttpRequestEncoder should be overriding those particular headers
rather than not adding them. I agree there should be a single set, but it
seems like the ones added by the HttpRequestEncoder should be consider the
"correct" set.
> 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.
