Mike Heath commented on ASYNCWEB-4:
-----------------------------------
Is this still an issue in the AsyncWeb common codec?
> caller supplied content is ignored, and some request headers may be added
> twice

> Some request headers get special treatment by HttpRequestEncoder.
> HttpRequestEncoder does not make any effort in checking to see if they are
> present in the headers already. As a result, they may be added twice if one
> is not careful. For example,
> - Content-Type & Content-Length are added by HttpRequestEncoder for POST
> requests, and should not be added by callers.
> - Host & User-Agent are always added by HttpRequestEncoder, and should not be
> added by callers as ordinary headers.
> Although one could argue that callers should not add these headers by hand, I
> think HttpRequestEncoder still should ensure that they are not added twice.
