---------------------------------------
Summary: Missing HttpContext in HttpAsyncRequestHandlerMapper
Key: HTTPCORE-381
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-381
Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: HttpCore NIO
Affects Versions: 4.3.2
Reporter: Tobias Bieniek
It is a common use case to use a custom HttpAsyncRequestHandlerMapper
implementation to match the URLs against a list of regular expressions. Often
these regular expressions include capture groups that can be used to extract
parameters from the URL.
In `/user/(\d+)/profile` for example the group can be extracted and converted
to an integer. While the HttpAsyncRequestHandlerMapper implementation already
does the regex matching, it has no place to save the matching results since the
HttpContext is not passed to the mapper.
The naive way to fix this is to include the HttpContext in the lookup() method
interface, but unfortunately that would be a breaking change. I hope that
someone is able to come up with a better solution for this.
This issue is to some degree related to
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-308
