["Oleg Kalnichevski (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Oleg Kalnichevski updated HTTPCORE-133:
---------------------------------------

    Affects Version/s: 4.0-beta1

I am going to implement Cloneable for all classes that already have a #copy method or where ability to produce shallow copies may be useful. This said, I am sure cloning entities makes sense (at least to me). Why would you want that? Besides, streaming entities simply cannot be cloned because they are essentially read-once.

> It would be nice to have a clone method for some of the classes that don't have getters & setters exposed for all of their fields. Where relevant, the clone method could be in the interface, so that it doesn't matter which implementing class is being used. If I want to clone an entity, I can clone a entity and not figure out if it's UrlEncodedFormEntity, FileEntity, etc. So far, HttpEntity is the only interface in HttpCore that I've wanted to clone. I'm going to submit another ticket for client.
