A. Soroka commented on JENA-1335:
---------------------------------
Yes, {{CloseableHttpClient}} is frankly, a pain in the neck. I just had to deal
with the same confusion in another project. It's an abstract class. Every
client you get from the API (via {{HttpClientBuilder}} _is_ a
{{CloseableHttpClient}} but they all are actually returned as a plain
{{HttpClient}}. Only {{CloseableHttpClient}} returns
{{CloseableHttpResponse}}s, but the only way you can get them is to cast. It's
confusing at best. I hope they improve it in v5.
That comment is referring to the obsolete idea that if a client was given to
Jena we should not close it because it might be in use elsewhere whereas if we
built one we should close it after use. That was wrong-- we didn't understand
that {{HttpClient}} is thread-safe and meant for reuse. That comment should go.
> HttpOp does not close HttpResponses.
