[jira] Commented: (HTTPCORE-219) HttpRequestParser Fails to Detect
Requests Without a Message Body
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-219?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12841466#action_12841466 ]
James Leigh commented on HTTPCORE-219:
--------------------------------------
HttpRequestFactory does not have access to the HTTP headers and cannot determine if the request has a message body.
I guess my concern is not with GET/POST/PUT, but HTTP methods not defined in HTTP 1.1, such as the method defined in WebDAV.

> The HttpRequestParser uses the request method to determine if the request has a message body. However, HTTP 1.1 states that the presence of a message-body in a request is signaled by the inclusion of a Content-Length or Transfer-Encoding header field in the request's header fields. The parser should be changed to use the header to determine if a message body is present.
> As is a POST or PUT request is received without a message body cannot be processed. Furthermore, a GET request with a message body cannot be processed either.
