HTTP Request with no Content-Type header
Does HTTPCore add a content type in case there is no Content-Type header in
the request message?
Thanks,
Supun..

BTW this is what the RFC says about this scenario:
*Any HTTP/1.1 message containing an entity-body SHOULD include a
> Content-Type header field defining the media type of that body. If and only
> if the media type is not given by a Content-Type field, the recipient MAY
> attempt to guess the media type via inspection of its content and/or the
> name extension(s) of the URI used to identify the resource. If the media
> type remains unknown, the recipient SHOULD treat it as type
> "application/octet-stream".*
This is what we I have already done for response handling in the NHTTP
transport (and we did it in a configurable manner). Earlier it used to pass
an empty payload to the client when the responses did not have a
Content-Type header. May be we should do the same for the requests?
Thanks,
Hiranya

I think Synapse nhttp transport defaults to application/octet-stream which
will result in the message to be built as binary, I think Hiranya did some
fix around this sometime back, Hiranya*??
Thanks,
