John McCarthy created HTTPCORE-330:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Clarify {{InputStreamEntity}} {{length}} constructor
argument
Key: HTTPCORE-330
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-330
Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation, HttpCore
Affects Versions: 4.2.3
Reporter: John McCarthy
Priority: Minor
When creating an {{InputStreamEntity}}, content length may not be known.
(Also, it may be desired to create an entity that will be read until fully
consumed without specifying a content length.) From what I see in the
{{writeTo()}} method source, you may specify a number less than zero for the
{{length}} parameter in the constructor if the length is not known. Please
clarify this in the javadoc. Also, because is length is optional, perhaps
corresponding constructors should be added that don't require this parameter.
