Allow customized LineParser / OperatedClientConnection
------------------------------------------------------
Key: HTTPASYNC-5
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPASYNC-5
Project: HttpComponents HttpAsyncClient
Issue Type: Wish
Affects Versions: 4.0-alpha1
Reporter: Benjamin Sigg
Priority: Minor
The "org.apache.http.message.LineParser" interface is responsible for reading
the HTTP response header. In the current version of the async-http-client there
is no way to replace the default BasicLineParser with a custom implementation.
A custom implementation would be required to support additional formats that
are similar yet not exactly the same as HTTP (e.g. ICY).
At the moment the documentation tells us to override
"DefaultNHttpClientConnection.createResponseParser" to introduce a new
LineParser. But it is not possible to smuggle a subclass into to the http
client because "ClientConnAdaptor.open", which uses this
"OperatedClientConnection", just creates a new "DefaultNHttpClientConnection"
object.
An easy solution might be to allow clients to set a default LineParser. On the
other hand allowing clients to choose the "OperatedClientConnection" might be a
better long term solution.
