Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-779:
----------------------------------------------

Sam,

I think it is a pretty bad idea to re-throw protocol exceptions as a plain 
vanilla IOException. Could you please create a special subclass of IOException, 
ClientProtocolException or some such, for that end? I still would like to have 
an option to catch protocol exceptions thrown by the HttpClient#execute method.

> HttpClient.execute should throw only one exception, for easier general use.
> HttpMethod constructors (HttpGet, HttpPut, etc..) should throw 
> IllegalArgumentException in the string constructor (imply the string is 
> pre-checked).  People wanting to see a URIException can use 'new HttpGet(new 
> URI(uri))' and trigger the exception from the explicit URI creation.
