Jochen Kemnade commented on HTTPCLIENT-1511:
--------------------------------------------
That would be perfectly fine for my use case, thanks. I just want to be able to
get an input stream for the entity (or use piped streams and be able to stream
it to an output stream).
> Should be possible to retrieve the entity stream from a fluent respose

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1511
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Fluent HC
> Affects Versions: 4.3.3
> Reporter: Jochen Kemnade
> Fix For: Future
>
>
> For a Response, there should be an easy way to retrieve/work with the
> returned entity's stream, because you don't always want the create an
> in-memory copy of the whole content. You should not have to write a custom
> ResponseHandler and have to implement the status line handling again.
> We could add EntityStreamHandler and
> Reponse.handleEntityStream(EntityStreamHandler) or just make it easier to
> subclass BasicResponseHandler (i.e. not always convert to a String).
