Hi

Unfortuntately not, not yet.
However, you can do the following on every request, after it has been injected :

public class SomeService {
private WebClient injectedWc = ...

@POST
public void doIt() {

   // copy-constructor-like creation
   WebClient currentWc = WebClient.fromClient(injectedWc, true);
   // or just WebClient.fromClient(injectedWc);

   currentWc.post(...)
}

}


The currentWc will get all the configuration the injectWc has, including the headers which might've been set on it on the init time (the 2nd 'true' parameter). WebClient.fromClient() can be used to 'convert' proxies into WebClients too. I've been thinking about the tread-safety of a single client earlier on and at a time I chose to have methods like WebClient.getResponse() or WebClient.back() working well. I reckon WebClient.fromClient() can be quite a cheap alternative (albeit with some extra effort from a user) to making sure a proxy/client is thread-safe internally, however, I'll be looking into this issue with more attention once I get into working on enhancing the client api (on the map)...

Hope it helps, Sergey

Hi

How thread safe is WebClient.  Can it be injected (spring wired) into a
bean, and reused on a per request basis to call a downstream web service
?



Thanks for any guidance
