Hi,
When setting the virtual host parameter (ClientPNames.VIRTUAL_HOST) on a
client, it has no affect on actual virtual host used when the client executes
requests. It only looks at the parameters from the request object.
In version 4.2.Alpha1 this is handled in line 408-414 in
org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultRequestDirector.execute
HttpRequest orig = request;
RequestWrapper origWrapper = wrapRequest(orig);
origWrapper.setParams(params);
HttpRoute origRoute = determineRoute(target, origWrapper, context);
virtualHost = (HttpHost) orig.getParams().getParameter(
ClientPNames.VIRTUAL_HOST);
Is this by design? Or is this a bug?
A possible solution would be to merge the two collections of parameters, but I
expect, that some there needs to be a common understanding around which takes
priority - parameters on client or request.
