Modifying the URI of an HttpRequest

[William Speirs <ws...@apache.org>]

What is the easiest way to modify the URI of an HttpRequest?

I'm about to write code like this:
HttpRequest newReq = new BasicHttpRequest(// fill in with method, new uri,
and protocol version);
// copy all headers
// copy entity body

This seems like a lot of work when I all I really want is a .setUri()
method.

Ideas?

Basically there is no good reason.

Basically, my question is why isn't there a setRequestLine method for the
HttpRquest interface? The HttpMessage interface has all kinds of set
methods for headers and such, why not a set method for RequestLine in
HttpRequest?

Thanks...
