Hello folks,
since the http-common component is meant to be useful
by it's own for simple HTTP communication, we should
give a little thought to those that might want to work on
that simple level. As soon as they have to communicate
through a proxy, they get a dependency on the http-client
component, which depends on several other components.
The dependencies seem even more excessive for people
who only want to tunnel an application specific protocol
through an HTTP proxy.
What do you think about a new component for the
proxy/tunneling support currently listed in http-client?
* http-tunnel depends on http-common
- ProxyConnectMethod implementing HttpRequest
? HttpProxyHost (only if HttpHost is moved to
http-common, to avoid dependency on http-client)
cheers,
Roland
