Michael Osipov commented on HTTPCORE-626:
-----------------------------------------
Does the version change imply that this cannot be fixed?
> Don't send request body for "Expect: 100-continue" when servers closes
> connection on non-2xx status code

> Based on the discussion in

> thread. The expect handling was been changed in a way that it turns out to
> be pointless. Roy Fielding commented that a server can close a connection on
> a non-2xx status and the client does not need to send the request body in
> this case.
> In the spirit of this, we shall close the connection immediately w/o sending
> the request body. It shall only be send if the server does not request to
> close the connection.
> The client can close the connection itself if a non-2xx status has been
> received and it wishes not to send the request body. Otherwise one must
> completely the request for the server connection to continue function
> properly.
> This likely only applies when a {{Content-Length}} header has been supplied.
