> I am currently migrating from hc 4.x to hc 5.0.1 and faced a Problem:
> In hc 4.x I was able to set the credentials charset to use for digest auth by 
> creating a "DigestSchemeFactory" using this constructor: 
> [DigestSchemeFactory(java.nio.charset.Charset)|https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/httpclient/apidocs/org/apache/http/impl/auth/DigestSchemeFactory.html#DigestSchemeFactory(java.nio.charset.Charset)]
>  and adding the instance to a "AuthSchemeRegistry" which I set as default for 
> the client instance to use.
>  
> This is no longer possible (the encoding for "DigestScheme" can not be 
> changed anymore), but probably needed when e.g. a password contains 
> characters outside of "ISO-8859-1" (the current internal default for 
> DigestScheme).
>  
> A possible (unattractive) workaround would be copying a lot of code 
> (implement a own "DigestSchemeFactory", overwrite 
> "org.apache.hc.client5.http.impl.auth.DigestScheme.generateAuthResponse(HttpHost,
>  HttpRequest, HttpContext)", copy/modify 
> "org.apache.hc.client5.http.impl.auth.DigestScheme.createDigestResponse(HttpRequest)"
>  and copy "org.apache.hc.client5.http.impl.auth.HttpEntityDigester").
>  
> Also: Is there a Place where I find information that helps me to understand 
> the decisions made for hc 5?
