             Summary: It should be easy to use gzip compression
                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1390
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1390
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: Fluent HC
    Affects Versions: 4.2.5
            Reporter: Jochen Kemnade


Currently, to use gzip compression, you have to manually set the {{Accept-Encoding}} header on the {{Request}}, check for the {{Content-Encoding\\ header on the response and optionally use a {{GZIPInputStream}} on {{asStream()}}.
As this behavior is already implemented in {{DecompressingHttpClient}} (or {{org.apache.http.client.protocol.RequestAcceptEncoding}} and {{org.apache.http.client.protocol.ResponseContentEncoding}}), a {{useCompression()}} method could be added to {{org.apache.http.client.fluent.Request}} that wraps a {{DecompressingHttpClient}} around {{Executor.CLIENT}} in the {{execute()}} method.
