First, thanks to everyone who responded to my query. Your comments are very helpful.
After playing around with HttpCore for a day, I've noticed that I have a couple of requirements that may not be handled by HttpCore "out of the box." The first is SSL connections. I have grabbed a copy of Apache Synapse, which Asankha mentioned uses HttpCore to make SSL client connections. The key here is providing an SSLContext instance to the HttpCore code. I'll have to do a bit of reading to understand how SSL key files work. With HttpClient all the details are handled for me. My other requirement is support for connection proxies. Although HttpExecutionContext defines a HTTP_PROXY_HOST constant, I haven't found any other code that handles managing the proxy connection. Is there any code for doing this? Perhaps there's some alpha code in HttpClient 4. bob --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
