This is a simple project with a test case demonstrating the failure.

> Key: CXF-6330
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6330
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Configuration
> Affects Versions: 2.7.0, 3.0.4
> Environment: Linux, Java 7
> Reporter: John McNair
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: easyfix, easytest
> Attachments: cxf-http-client-policy-bug.tar.gz
>
> Original Estimate: 2h
> Remaining Estimate: 2h
>
> The documentation states that chunking cannot be used if either of these
> conditions are met:
> - http-conf:basicAuthSupplier is configured to provide credentials
> preemptively
> - AutoRedirect is set to true
> It further states that setAllowChunking is ignored if one of those conditions
> are met.
> See the docs here:
> http://cxf.apache.org/docs/client-http-transport-including-ssl-support.html
> This makes sense, so I think the intent behind the documentation is correct.
> However, it does not reflect the behavior of the code.
> If the chunking threshold is met then:
> setAutoRedirect(true), unsetAllowChunking() -> request is chunked
> setAutoRedirect(true), setAllowChunking(true) -> request is chunked
> setAutoRedirect(true), setAllowChunking(false) -> request is not chunked
> So setAllowChunking() is not ignored.
> I was intending to submit a patch, but when I started digging, it seems there
> are several classes which have some level of responsibility for interpreting
> the values in HTTPClientPolicy. The most natural place to impose these
> restrictions would be HTTPClientPolicy so that all consumers would share a
> similar behavior. However, that class is generated.
> I'm not really sure where this should be fixed then.
