Description
Steffen Pingel
+1 Steffen: are you interested in taking this one on? Note that I'll have to do the IP approval process first. Do you know if there are any plans to make Apache HttpClient 3.1 available through Orbit? Otherwise I don't think there will be enough benefit in upgrading to make this a priority. We might actually need this to fix bug 197853. Mik, if this is not a major pain could you kick of the IP review process? Done: https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1765 Downloads are at: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/downloads_commons-httpclient-3.x.cgi This is now under review. I propose to facade the whole HttpClient library as well, so that add ons such as gzip encoding the traffic (bug 196056) and a proper User Agent string (bug 205213) can roll into all connectors. Steffen: should I try to see if we can get this for 2.2? Considering other priorities I don't think we would be able to integrate the new version in time for 2.2. Doing this early in the 2.3 cycle would be good though. Steffen: the CQ has been approved, so we can proceed with this once it gets priority. Great! I'll take a look at it when 2.2 is out the door. Replaced Apache Commons HttpClient version 3.0.2 by version 3.1in CVS. Created attachment 85985 [details]

I am confused. I thought that the current strategy is to move everything into orbit. Also assignee is invalid. As you pointed out on a another bug, moving to Orbit will require changes in the distribution and build process. Updating HttpClient was blocking other bugs with higher priority therefore I resolved this bug first. The bug was assigned to Mik which is perfectly valid. Makes sense, but can you please resolve bug 208073 as it been contributed? Then build and other issues related to moving to orbit can be resolved on a separate bug report. As per bug assignment, can you please clarify what you're referred as valid? You did the work, hence bug should be assigned to you as per project policy, unless I am missing something. (In reply to comment #12) > Replaced Apache Commons HttpClient version 3.0.2 by version 3.1in CVS. My agent string returns: "Mylyn/2.3.0 Eclipse/3.3.1 (null) HttpClient/3.1 Java/1.5.0_13 (Apple) Mac OS X/10.5.1 (i386; en_US)" and I find the gzip encoding, bug 205708 , continues to work for the bugzilla connector even though no unit tests exist for that.
