| Release 4.0.2 |
| ------------------- |
| |
| This is a maintenance release that fixes a number of bugs discovered since |
| the previous stable release. This is likely to be the last release from the |
| 4.0.x branch. |
| |
| Changelog |
| ------------------- |
| |
| * [HTTPCLIENT-951] Non-repeatable entity enclosing requests are not correctly |
| retried when 'expect-continue' handshake is active. |
| Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org> |
| |
| * [HTTPCLIENT-953] IllegalStateException thrown by RouteSpecificPool. |
| Contributed by Guillaume <gueugaie at gmail.com> |
| |
| * Work-around for HTTPCLIENT-948 (idle connection handling code can |
| leave closed connection in a inconsistent state) |
| Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org> |
| |
| Release 4.0.1 |
| ------------------- |
| |
| This is a bug fix release that addresses a number of issues discovered since |
| the previous stable release. None of the fixed bugs is considered critical. |
| Most notably this release eliminates eliminates dependency on JCIP annotations. |
| |
| This release is also expected to improve performance by 5 to 10% due to |
| elimination of unnecessary Log object lookups by short-lived components. |
| |
| Changelog |
| ------------------- |
| |
| * [HTTPCLIENT-895] Eliminated Log object lookups by short-lived components |
| impairing performance. |
| Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org> |
| |
| * [HTTPCLIENT-885] URLEncodedUtils now correctly parses form-url-encoded |
| entities that specify a charset. |
| Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org> |
| |
| * [HTTPCLIENT-884] UrlEncodedFormEntity now sets charset on the Content-Type |
| header. |
| Contributed by Jared Jacobs <jmjacobs at cs.stanford.edu> |
| |
| * [HTTPCLIENT-883] SO_TIMEOUT is not reset on persistent (re-used) connections. |
| Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org> |
| |
| * [HTTPCLIENT-882] Auth state is now correctly updated if a successful NTLM |
| authentication results in a redirect. This is a minor bug as HttpClient |
| manages to recover from the problem automatically. |
| Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org> |
| |
| * [HTTPCLIENT-881] Fixed race condition in AbstractClientConnAdapter that makes |
| it possible for an aborted connection to be returned to the pool. |
| Contributed by Tim Boemker <tboemker at elynx.com> and |

| |
| * [HTTPCLIENT-866] Removed dependency on jcip-annotations.jar. |
| Contributed by Oleg Kalnichevski <olegk at apache.org> |
| and Sebastian Bazley <sebb at apache.org> |
| |
| |
| Release 4.0 |
| ------------------- |
| |
| HttpClient 4.0 represents a complete, ground-up redesign and almost a complete |
| rewrite of the HttpClient 3.x codeline. This release finally addresses several |
| design flaws that existed since the 1.0 release and could not be fixed without |
| a major code overhaul and breaking API compatibility. |
| |
| |
| Architectural changes |
| --------------------- |
| |
| * Redesign of the HttpClient internals addressing all known major |
| architectural shortcomings of the 3.x codeline. |
| |
| * Cleaner, more flexible and expressive API. |
| |
| * More modular structure. |
| |
| * Better performance and smaller memory footprint due to a more efficient HTTP |
| transport based on HttpCore. |
| |
| * Implementation of cross-cutting HTTP protocol aspects through protocol |
| interceptors. |
| |
| * Improved connection management, better handling of persistent connections, |
| support for stateful connections |
| |
| * Pluggable redirect and authentication handlers. |
| |
| * Improved support for sending requests via a proxy or a chain of proxies |
| |
| * More flexible SSL context customization |
| |
| * Reduced intermediate garbage in the process of generating HTTP requests |
| and parsing HTTP responses |
| |
| |
| Important notes |
| ------------------- |
| |
| * Future releases of HttpMime module may be binary incompatible with this |
| release due to possible API changes in Apache Mime4J. Apache Mime4J is |
| still being actively developed and its API is considered unstable. |
| |
| * HttpClient 4.0 is not fully binary compatible with 4.0 BETA1 release. |
| Some protected variables in connection management class have been |
| made final in order to help ensure their thread safety: |

| org.apache.http.conn.BasicEofSensorWatcher#attemptReuse |
| org.apache.http.conn.BasicEofSensorWatcher#managedConn |

| |
| 4.0 Beta 1 |
| ------------------- |
| |
| BETA1 release brings yet another round of API enhancements and |
| improvements in the area of connection management. Among the most notable |
| ones is the capability to handle stateful connections such as persistent |
| NTLM connections and private key authenticated SSL connections. |
| |
| This is the first API stable release of HttpClient 4.0. All further |
| releases in the 4.0 code line will maintain API compatibility with this |
| release. |
| |
| There has been a number of important bug fixes since ALPHA4. All upstream |
| projects are encouraged to upgrade to the latest release. |
| |
| Please note HttpClient currently provides only limited support for NTLM |
| authentication. For details please see NTLM_SUPPORT.txt. |
| |

| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| Release 4.0 Alpha 4 |
| ------------------- |
| |
| ALPHA4 marks the completion of the overhaul of the connection management |
| code in HttpClient. All known shortcomings of the old HttpClient 3.x |
| connection management API have been addressed. |
| |
| NTLM authentication remains the only missing major feature in the new |
| codeline that prevents us from moving awards the API freeze. |
| |
| There has been a number of important bug fixes since ALPHA3. All upstream |
| projects are encouraged to upgrade to the latest release. |
| |
| ------------------- |
| |
| HttpClient 3.x features that have NOT yet been ported: |

| Contributed by Johannes Koch <johannes.koch at fit.fraunhofer.de> |
| |
| -------------------------------------- |
| |
| Release 4.0 Alpha 3 |
| ------------------- |
| |
| ALPHA3 release brings another round of API refinements and improvements in |
| functionality. As of this release HttpClient requires Java 5 compatible |
| runtime environment and takes full advantage of generics and new concurrency |
| primitives. |
| |
| This release also introduces new default cookie policy that selects a cookie |
| specification depending on the format of cookies sent by the target host. |
| It is no longer necessary to know beforehand what kind of HTTP cookie support |
| the target host provides. HttpClient is now able to pick up either a lenient |
| or a strict cookie policy depending on the compliance level of the target host. |
| |
| Another notable improvement is a completely reworked support for multipart |
| entities based on Apache mime4j library. |
