[ANNOUNCEMENT] HttpComponents Core 5.0 GA Released

2020-02-19 Thread Oleg Kalnichevski 
The Apache HttpComponents project is pleased to announce 5.0 GA release
of HttpComponents Core.

This is the first stable (GA) release of HttpCore 5.0.

Notable changes and features included in the 5.0 series:

* Support for HTTP/2 protocol and conformance to requirements and
recommendations of the latest HTTP/2 protocol specification (RFC 7540,
RFC 7541)

  Supported features:

** HPACK header compression
** stream multiplexing (client and server)
** flow control
** response push (client and server)
** message trailers
** expect-continue handshake
** connection validation (ping)
** application-layer protocol negotiation (ALPN) on Java 9+
** TLS 1.2 security features

   Features out of scope for 5.0 release:

** padding of outgoing frames
** stream priority
** plain connection HTTP/1.1 upgrade
** CONNECT method

* Improved conformance to requirements and recommendations of the
latest HTTP/1.1 protocol specification (RFC 7230, RFC 7231)

* New asynchronous HTTP transport APIs consistent for both HTTP/1.1 and
HTTP/2 transport.

* Redesigned I/O reactor APIs and improved NIO based reactor
implementation for a greater performance and scalability.

* Support for server-side request filters for classic and asynchronous
server implementations. Request filters could be used to implement
cross-cutting protocol aspects such as the 'expect-continue'
handshaking and user authentication / authorization.

* Support for Reactive Streams API [http://www.reactive-streams.org/]

* Redesigned connection pool implementation with strict connection
limit guarantees. The connection pool is expected to have a better
performance under higher concurrency due to reduced global pool lock
contention.

* New connection pool implementation with lax connection limit
guarantees and better performance under higher concurrency due to
absence of a global pool lock.

* Package name space changed to 'org.apache.hc.core5'

* Maven group id changed to 'org.apache.httpcomponents.core5'

About HttpComponents Core

HttpCore is a set of low level HTTP transport components that can be
used to build custom client and server side HTTP services with a
minimal footprint. HttpCore supports two I/O models: a blocking I/O
model based on the classic Java I/O and a non-blocking, event driven
I/O model based on Java NIO.
