Summary: Trim default ports (80 and 443) in host header
Key: HTTPCLIENT-1513
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1513
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: HttpClient
Affects Versions: 4.3.3
Reporter: pavan
When a HTTP request is made using HTTP components and the request url contains
a default port (80 for http and 443 for https)
http://example.com:80/something
https://example.com:443/something
Seems like the host header is taken from the URL authority(host:port) part.
There by the host header includes the ports 80 and 443. According to HTTP spec
if no port is specified in the host header it defaults 80 or 443 (based on http
or https).
When i am accessing maps.googleapi.com if the host header contains the default
port 443 the server is rejecting the request. I understand that the server
should accept such host headers. But still it will be good if we can trim out
the default ports or at least provide a property to trim out default ports.
