Bronislav Gabrhelík created HTTPCLIENT-1291:
-----------------------------------------------
Summary: The HttpGet() and likely other method objects should
accept only absoluteURI with path specified
Key: HTTPCLIENT-1291
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1291
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Bug
Components: HttpClient
Affects Versions: 4.2.2
Environment: JRE 1.6.23, Windows 7
Reporter: Bronislav Gabrhelík
Current HttpGet ctor accepts the absoluteURI without specified path i.e. just
with schema & authority specified. It is somehow handled in the client (on
different layer) so request GET is sent with the absolute root path specified.
e.g. "GET / HTTP/1.1". The problem is that the HttpGet() constructed by that
way doesn't work when the HttpClient is configured with the HTTP proxy. In that
case is generated GET request with absolute URI but without the ending slash.
e.g "GET http://www.apache.org HTTP/1.1". This is an inconsistent behavior.
Expected behavior:
GET method doesn't make sense without the path specified, so at least one slash
should be specified. It concerns also other method objects like HttpPut(),
HttpDelete(), etc. I don't think it is a general rule to be applied into
HttpUriRequest, but maybe I am wrong.
e.g.
{code}
HttpGet req = new HttpGet("http://www.apache.org";); // this URI is wrong
HttpGet req = new HttpGet("http://www.apache.org/";); // URI is O.K.
{code}
