HttpMethodBase.getResponseCharSet() returns ISO-8859-1 when no charset is
specified in the Content-Type header
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HTTPCLIENT-905
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-905
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 3.1 Final
Reporter: Jens Askengren
If no charset is specified in the Content-Type header, ISO-8859-1 is returned
by HttpMethodBase.getResponseCharSet().
In this case I would expect NULL to be returned so my application can fall back
on content sniffing when the return value is not trustworthy.
The HttpMethodBase.getResponseCharSet() and HttpMethodBase.getContentCharSet()
methods seems to both return the charset specified in Content-Type header.
What's the difference? The documentation is not clear.
