Michael Osipov created WAGON-584:
------------------------------------
Summary: LightweightHttpWagon and tests are built on false
assumptions around internal buffering
Key: WAGON-584
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WAGON-584
Project: Maven Wagon
Issue Type: Bug
Components: wagon-http-lightweight
Affects Versions: 3.3.4
Reporter: Michael Osipov
The {{LightweightHttpWagon}} heavily differ from {{HttpWagon}} internally, the
way {{HttpURLConnection}} is implemented it is virtually impossible to make
them behave similar (or identical).
Notable differences:
* Expect Continue is virtually not supported and signals an exception as soon
as non-2xx is received
* *All* content is buffered in a byte array making it extremely inefficient
with large uploads.
* As soon as streaming mode is enabled (see
{{#setFixedLengthStreamingMode(long)}} and {{#setChunkedStreamingMode(int)}})
redirect and authentication support are disabled
Tests do assume that both behave the same although {{HttpWagon}} is fully
streaming while the otherone is not. So, the tests are illdesigned/based on
false assumptions. Run branch WAGON-584_streaming and see the failures.
This behavior is nowhere documented and not properly covered in tests.
