Oleg Kalnichevski resolved HTTPCLIENT-245.
------------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 4.0 Final)
                   4.0 Alpha 1

Fixed in SVN trunk. HttpClient will always execute HTTP GET when automatically 
redirecting to a new location, regardless of the original method type.

Latest changes in trunk _finally_ fixed one of the long standing design 
limitations in HttpClient

> I tried this with both the beta2 2.0 release, and the nightly build.  The
> following code snippet describes what I am trying to do:
> httpClient.getHostConfiguration().setHost(sHost, 80, "http");
> HttpMethod method=null;
> if (sMethod.indexOf("POST")!=-1) {
>      method=new PostMethod(sURLInfo);
> } else {
>      method=new GetMethod(sURLInfo);
> }
> method.setFollowRedirects(true);
> httpClient.executeMethod(method);
> After this code executes, the "getFollowRedirects" method still returns false,
> and any redirects which are sent by the webserver are not followed.  As a
> temporary workaround, since I want all redirects followed, I commented out the
> following code in the HttpMethodBase class in the "processRedirectResponse" 
> method:
> /*if (!getFollowRedirects()) {
>      LOG.info("Redirect requested but followRedirects is "
>      + "disabled");
>      return false;
> }*/
> If this bug has already been reported, I apologize...I searched for and found
> nothing related to this issue.
