RE: tomcat log says HTTP/1.0? HTTPClient

[Adam Kurland <Ad...@biospace.com>]

This is a great library.  We have used it in production (life science
research) code for about a year; never had any problems with it.

We even use in a situation in which a servlet creates multiple threads, each
using a connection object from the this library at the same time. 

Just remember that you generally never want to call disconnect(), and that
it pools connection objects to the same server:port for you so that you dont
have to.

And, of course, don't forget to place a copy of the jar file inside the
webapps/<your-app>/WEB-INF/lib directory!

So any idea when there will be a full release of Jakarta's HttpClient 
then? ;) seriously I've not found an http client that doesnt have bugs. 
For example, we needed to use PUT requests, and the jakarta HttpClient 
hangs doing a PUT request when talking to Tomcat 3.2 (see 
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11653) - this was a 
showstopper for us[1]

Do you have any suggestions for http client libs?

Cheers,

[1] yes I know I should just submit a patch, the fix I suggest in the 
bug report is trivial; but for production we needed to know that the fix 
would still be there in the official release.
