> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CXF-8375
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-8375
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Transports
> Affects Versions: 3.4.0
> Reporter: Syed Mudassir Ahmed
> Priority: Minor
>
> In CXF versions 2.7.18, we clearly had access to httpProcessor as per this
> commit
> [https://github.com/apache/cxf/commit/a18be4fac03d3886317b0201123e9917d1a33e60#diff-f5349d24a3d1a3bced2aa168ce24d586461fe743d2e0b72f0fafcfedb9a99234L132.]
> I don't know why access to that httpProcessor is revoked in the subsequent
> versions of CXF.
> We were facing a problem. We were talking to a webservice. The webservice
> returns a redirect 3XX response mentioning the new host to talk to. And that
> host actually contains port as well such as "newserver.com:80".
> And while handling the redirect, CXF was putting the target host in the
> request as "newserver:80" instead of just "newserver". This was failing and
> we were not able to fetch the results.
> The fix was to add a custom HTTP request interceptor in httpProcessor. This
> interceptor stays on top of all the other interceptors. And it simply chops
> the port and add the target host as just "newserver".
> It worked well in CXF version 2.7.18. The moment we migrated to CXF 3.x (due
> to moving to JDK11) then our app starting giving compilation error. Because
> in 3.x version, access to that httpProcessor is revoked.
> I would suggest to regain the access to that field since it was already like
> that before. I know mine could be a rare requirement but it was easy for to
> add an interceptor to httpProcessor earlier.
> Right now, we have to create a custom factory and get the things done. They
> are not that straight-forward. If we had access to httpProcessor then no
> need to create any custom factory. We can simply add our interceptors
> directly.
