It is actually very easy to use > http client libraries with the here-in introduced system. Here is a demo: Start by creating a [new module](https://github.com/dukescript/netbeans/commit/d439aee5d5992fd8e6b35bfc57bcc8c013fd6a50) which is using the JDK11 specific [HttpClient](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.net.http/java/net/http/HttpClient.html) API: ```java public void demo() throws Exception { HttpClient client = HttpClient.newBuilder() .version(Version.HTTP_1_1) .followRedirects(Redirect.NORMAL) .connectTimeout(Duration.ofSeconds(20)) .proxy(ProxySelector.of(new InetSocketAddress("proxy.example.com", 80))) .authenticator(Authenticator.getDefault()) .build(); HttpRequest request = HttpRequest.newBuilder() .uri(URI.create("https://foo.com/";)) .timeout(Duration.ofMinutes(2)) .header("Content-Type", "application/json") .build(); HttpResponse<String> response = client.send(request, HttpResponse.BodyHandlers.ofString()); System.out.println(response.statusCode()); System.out.println(response.body()); } ``` of course, you can't compile this on JDK8. What do you do? You enable the [future API aware compiler](https://github.com/dukescript/netbeans/commit/72e067467dac6f4f651a048a5cc31ba237d37875) and tell it to use JDK11's API (by setting `javac.target=11`). Then everything compiles even on JDK8. The last step is to [use the module](https://github.com/dukescript/netbeans/commit/b325d3c0297def205c23c781a510f848c4dff1ef) when available - of course it is only available when running on JDK11+, otherwise it is disabled. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
