Richard Barnett created HTTPCLIENT-1336:
-------------------------------------------
Summary: Document Entity-consuming behaviour of HttpClient.execute
methods with ResponseHandler param
Key: HTTPCLIENT-1336
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1336
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation, HttpClient
Affects Versions: 4.2.3
Reporter: Richard Barnett
Priority: Minor
AbstractHttpClient implementations of the HttpClient.execute methods with a
ResponseHandler parameter consume the response entity:
HttpResponse response = execute(target, request, context);
T result;
try {
result = responseHandler.handleResponse(response);
} catch (Exception t) { ... }
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
EntityUtils.consume(entity);
return result
Document this in javadoc somewhere; probably either ResponseHandler or
HttpClient. (It's not clear whether this behaviour is part of the HttpClient
interface contract for these execute methods.)
(I hit this because I used one of these methods to work round HTTPCLIENT-1335.)
