Perhaps I'm lazy, but I'm wondering if there's a way (or could be a way) to attach a listener to the HttpClient such that all redirects are first passed to the listener before they're submitted. The listener would have the opportunity to inspect the proposed request (e.g. GET) and, if desired, reject it.
I'll state the obvious: 1. This sounds like the job of a forward proxy 2. Alternatively, the code could disable automatic redirects and handle them itself But like I said, perhaps I'm lazy. Configuring a forward proxy, like Squid, is non-trivial. Handling redirects manually is non-trivial. Thoughts? Chris
