Hi all,

I am testing with http-client-4.0-alha3.

Roughly, I have this code:

                HttpPost p = new HttpPost(url...);
                p.setEntity(entity....);
                HttpResponse r = httpClient.execute(p);
                HttpEntity ent = r.getEntity();
                OutputStream out = ...
                ent.writeTo(out);
                // we need this seperate call, so the connection is released
                ent.consumeContent();
                out.close();

The extra consumeContent() call is needed so that the connection gets freed.
However, I would expect writeTo() is doing this, since it processes the whole 
input.

Bug or feature? ;)

Best,

Jens
