Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-904:
----------------------------------------------

Odi, I see your point. Actually HttpMime cannot be considered API stable as its 
underlying library - mime4j is not yet API stable. We could remove 
UnsupportedEncodingException if you think this issue is severe enough to 
warrant API breakage.

> The string body constructors that take a charset unnecessarily throw

>             Charset charset) throws UnsupportedEncodingException {

>             throw new IllegalArgumentException("Text may not be null");
>         }
>         if (charset == null) {
>             charset = Charset.defaultCharset();
>         }
>         this.content = text.getBytes(charset.name());
>         this.charset = charset;

>     
>     public StringBody(final String text, Charset charset) throws 
> UnsupportedEncodingException {
>         this(text, "text/plain", charset);

> I suggest to change this to
>     public StringBody(
>             final String text, 
>             final String mimeType, 
>             Charset charset)  {

>         if (text == null) {
>             throw new IllegalArgumentException("Text may not be null");
>         }
>         if (charset == null) {
>             charset = Charset.defaultCharset();
>         }
>         this.content = text.getBytes(charset);
>         this.charset = charset;
>     }
>     
>     public StringBody(final String text, Charset charset) {
>         this(text, "text/plain", charset);
>     }
> The important change is to change
>         this.content = text.getBytes(charset.name());
> to 
>         this.content = text.getBytes(charset);
> which will not throw and hence the throws specifications can be removed.
