--------------------------------------------
Summary: HttpClient5 - RequestEntityProxy#isRepeatable incorrectly
returns false before entity is consumed
Key: HTTPCLIENT-2366
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-2366
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Bug
Components: HttpClient (classic)
Reporter: Nicklas Wallgren
The behavior of {{RequestEntityProxy#isRepeatable}} changed in [this
commit|https://github.com/apache/httpcomponents-client/commit/a1eed8084de7c58203a6acb799b7e4b04f669d39#r154843658],
where the method now returns {{false}} unless {{writeTo()}} has already been
called.
This appears to be a regression. Previously, an entity was considered
repeatable as long as it hadn't been consumed yet and the original entity
itself was repeatable. The new logic incorrectly assumes that an entity is only
repeatable _after_ it's been consumed, which defeats the purpose of determining
retry eligibility _before_ transmission.
Since I don't have access to Jira or the Slack channel, I'm submitting the bug
report here instead.
