------------------------------------------

             Summary: ClientProtocolException contradicts tutorial statement
                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1603
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1603
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation, HttpClient
    Affects Versions: 4.4 Beta1, 4.3.6
            Reporter: Michael Osipov


[Chapter 1.4|http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/fundamentals.html#d5e271] says: "HttpClient can throw two types of exceptions: java.io.IOException in case of an I/O failure such as socket timeout or an socket reset and HttpException that signals an HTTP failure such as a violation of the HTTP protocol. Usually I/O errors are considered non-fatal and recoverable, whereas HTTP protocol errors are considered fatal and cannot be automatically recovered from."

The [Javadoc|http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/httpclient/apidocs/org/apache/http/client/ClientProtocolException.html] of {{ClientProtocolException}} says: "Signals an error in the HTTP protocol." Given the definition established in the tutorial, either one is incorrect. Either {{ClientProtocolException}} must derive from {{HttpException}} or its documentation must be contrary to the latter.
