Hi Sami
Have you looked at the ResponseHandler interface? In essence it is very much
like Spring callback interface while HttpClient acts as a template for that
callback.
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpcomponents/httpclient/trunk/httpclient/src/examples/org/apache/http/examples/client/ClientWithResponseHandler.java
> the code for the GZIP interceptors that are documented as examples on
> httpclient website
There has been some work done on including transparent content compression into
the stock version of HttpClient. Feel free to review the code and contribute
whatever bits you find lacking.

There is already such a contrib package, but all the code in that package is
distributed as source only. If that is okay with you, feel free to submit your
components for inclusion into that package but you will have to re-license it
under Apache License v2.

> I have extracted some supporting code out of my application in the hope to
> make it widely available for others. It is available at :
> http://www.sirika.com/maven2/releases/com/sirika/httpclienthelpers/com.sirika.httpclienthelpers-assembly/0.1/com.sirika.httpclienthelpers-assembly-0.1-all.zip
> It contains :
> - HttpClientTemplate that automatically open/close connections in case of
> exceptions.It also provides a kind of generic http error handling mechanism.
> - a spring HttpClientFactoryBean (as well as a helper factory class for
> httpclient) that allows setting up http client for the common use case
> - an InputStreamSourceBody that can be used to create POST entities that are
> repeatable, wrapping a spring InputStreamSource
> - the code for the GZIP interceptors that are documented as examples on
> httpclient website.
> The code is still not tested (just extracted that logic from my application),
> needs some polishing, and a few things like the error handling mechanism
> still need more thought. But I feel it can be helpful to others.
> So, my question is : can we create a kind of -contrib project for httpclient,
> that allows people to share their helpers with the community ?
> the code is currently available under under apache v2 license, but I'm
> willing to adopt whatever licensing/copyright issues that would help to make
> this available.
> Oh, also, if you want to see the code in action, here's an example of a REST
> client that uses it :
> http://www.sirika.com/maven2/releases/com/sirika/pymager/pymager-java-client-assembly/0.11/pymager-java-client-assembly-0.11-all.zip
> (which is another project born out of extracted code from my application,
> that I'm trying to push as open source ; I just lack time to handle the
> community / website / etc issues).
