Field Detail

CONTENT_LENGTH_AUTO

@Deprecated
public static final long CONTENT_LENGTH_AUTO
Deprecated. Use InputStreamRequestEntity.CONTENT_LENGTH_AUTO.
The content length will be calculated automatically. This implies buffering of the content.

Constant Field Value:
-2L
See Also:
Constant Field Values

CONTENT_LENGTH_CHUNKED

@Deprecated
public static final long CONTENT_LENGTH_CHUNKED
Deprecated. Use setContentChunked(boolean).
The request will use chunked transfer encoding. Content length is not calculated and the content is not buffered.

Constant Field Value:
-1L

Constructor Detail

EntityEnclosingMethod

public EntityEnclosingMethod()
No-arg constructor.

Since:
2.0

EntityEnclosingMethod

public EntityEnclosingMethod(java.lang.String uri)
Constructor specifying a URI.

Parameters:
uri - either an absolute or relative URI
Since:
2.0
Method Detail

hasRequestContent

protected boolean hasRequestContent()
Returns true if there is a request body to be sent.

This method must be overridden by sub-classes that implement alternative request content input methods

Specified by:
hasRequestContent in class ExpectContinueMethod
Returns:
boolean
Since:
2.0beta1

clearRequestBody

protected void clearRequestBody()
Clears the request body.

This method must be overridden by sub-classes that implement alternative request content input methods.

Since:
2.0beta1

generateRequestBody

protected byte[] generateRequestBody()
Generates the request body.

This method must be overridden by sub-classes that implement alternative request content input methods.

Returns:
request body as an array of bytes. If the request content has not been set, returns null.
Since:
2.0beta1

generateRequestEntity

protected RequestEntity generateRequestEntity()

getFollowRedirects

public boolean getFollowRedirects()
Entity enclosing requests cannot be redirected without user intervention according to RFC 2616.

Specified by:
getFollowRedirects in interface HttpMethod
Overrides:
getFollowRedirects in class HttpMethodBase
Returns:
false.
Since:
2.0

setFollowRedirects

public void setFollowRedirects(boolean followRedirects)
Entity enclosing requests cannot be redirected without user intervention according to RFC 2616.

Specified by:
setFollowRedirects in interface HttpMethod
Overrides:
setFollowRedirects in class HttpMethodBase
Parameters:
followRedirects - must always be false

setRequestContentLength

@Deprecated
public void setRequestContentLength(int length)
Deprecated. Use setContentChunked(boolean) or setRequestEntity(RequestEntity)

Sets length information about the request body.

Note: If you specify a content length the request is unbuffered. This prevents redirection and automatic retry if a request fails the first time. This means that the HttpClient can not perform authorization automatically but will throw an Exception. You will have to set the necessary 'Authorization' or 'Proxy-Authorization' headers manually.

Parameters:
length - size in bytes or any of CONTENT_LENGTH_AUTO, CONTENT_LENGTH_CHUNKED. If number of bytes or CONTENT_LENGTH_CHUNKED is specified the content will not be buffered internally and the Content-Length header of the request will be used. In this case the user is responsible to supply the correct content length. If CONTENT_LENGTH_AUTO is specified the request will be buffered before it is sent over the network.

getRequestCharSet

public java.lang.String getRequestCharSet()
Returns the request's charset. The charset is parsed from the request entity's content type, unless the content type header has been set manually.

Overrides:
getRequestCharSet in class HttpMethodBase
Returns:
String The character set.
See Also:
RequestEntity.getContentType()
Since:
3.0

setRequestContentLength

@Deprecated
public void setRequestContentLength(long length)
Deprecated. Use setContentChunked(boolean) or setRequestEntity(RequestEntity)

Sets length information about the request body.

Note: If you specify a content length the request is unbuffered. This prevents redirection and automatic retry if a request fails the first time. This means that the HttpClient can not perform authorization automatically but will throw an Exception. You will have to set the necessary 'Authorization' or 'Proxy-Authorization' headers manually.

Parameters:
length - size in bytes or any of CONTENT_LENGTH_AUTO, CONTENT_LENGTH_CHUNKED. If number of bytes or CONTENT_LENGTH_CHUNKED is specified the content will not be buffered internally and the Content-Length header of the request will be used. In this case the user is responsible to supply the correct content length. If CONTENT_LENGTH_AUTO is specified the request will be buffered before it is sent over the network.

setContentChunked

public void setContentChunked(boolean chunked)
Sets whether or not the content should be chunked.

Parameters:
chunked - true if the content should be chunked
Since:
3.0

getRequestContentLength

protected long getRequestContentLength()
Returns the length of the request body.

Returns:
number of bytes in the request body

addRequestHeaders

protected void addRequestHeaders(HttpState state,
                                 HttpConnection conn)
                          throws java.io.IOException,
                                 HttpException
Populates the request headers map to with additional headers to be submitted to the given HttpConnection.

This implementation adds tt>Content-Length or Transfer-Encoding headers.

Subclasses may want to override this method to to add additional headers, and may choose to invoke this implementation (via super) to add the "standard" headers.

Overrides:
addRequestHeaders in class ExpectContinueMethod
Parameters:
state - the state information associated with this method
conn - the connection used to execute this HTTP method
See Also:
HttpMethodBase.writeRequestHeaders(com.microsoft.tfs.core.httpclient.HttpState, com.microsoft.tfs.core.httpclient.HttpConnection)
Throws:
java.io.IOException - if an I/O (transport) error occurs. Some transport exceptions can be recovered from.
HttpException - if a protocol exception occurs. Usually protocol exceptions cannot be recovered from.
Since:
3.0

addContentLengthRequestHeader

protected void addContentLengthRequestHeader(HttpState state,
                                             HttpConnection conn)
                                      throws java.io.IOException,
                                             HttpException

recycle

@Deprecated
public void recycle()
Deprecated. no longer supported and will be removed in the future version of HttpClient
