[jira] Updated: (HTTPCLIENT-992) cache should not generate stale responses to requests explicitly requesting first-hand or fresh ones

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-992?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jonathan Moore updated HTTPCLIENT-992:
--------------------------------------

    Attachment: stale-responses-to-explicit-requests.patch

The attached patch addresses this issue by either propagating the IOException (for no-cache requests) or by generating a 504 (Gateway Timeout) error.

This patch is contributed to the ASF with the permission of my employer.

> The current implementation will serve a stale response in the case that it has a stale cache entry but revalidation with the origin fails. However, the RFC says we SHOULD NOT do this if the client explicitly requested a first-hand or fresh response (via no-cache, max-age, max-stale, or min-fresh).
