[jira] [Commented] (CXF-8375) Access to httpprocessor field of HttpAsyncClientBuilder in AsyncHTTPConduitFactory

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-8375?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17262978#comment-17262978 ]

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

Hi [~syedbhai] ,

I've looked for the ways to provide the missing functionality. One of the solution would be to allow AsyncHTTPConduitFactory to accept the instance of `HttpAsyncClientBuilder`: in this case you don't need to subclass AsyncHTTPConduitFactory but instantiate one with your own pre-configured settings (including the HTTP processors, ...). What do you think, would it be helpful? Thank you.

> In CXF versions 2.7.18, we clearly had access to httpProcessor as per this commit [https://github.com/apache/cxf/commit/a18be4fac03d3886317b0201123e9917d1a33e60#diff-f5349d24a3d1a3bced2aa168ce24d586461fe743d2e0b72f0fafcfedb9a99234L132.]
> I don't know why access to that httpProcessor is revoked in the subsequent versions of CXF.
> We were facing a problem.  We were talking to a webservice.  The webservice returns a redirect 3XX response mentioning the new host to talk to.  And that host actually contains port as well such as "newserver.com:80".
> And while handling the redirect, CXF was putting the target host in the request as "newserver:80" instead of just "newserver".  This was failing and we were not able to fetch the results.
> The fix was to add a custom HTTP request interceptor in httpProcessor.  This interceptor stays on top of all the other interceptors.  And it simply chops the port and add the target host as just "newserver".
> It worked well in CXF version 2.7.18.  The moment we migrated to CXF 3.x (due to moving to JDK11) then our app starting giving compilation error.  Because in 3.x version, access to that httpProcessor is revoked.
> I would suggest to regain the access to that field since it was already like that before.  I know mine could be a rare requirement but it was easy for to add an interceptor to httpProcessor earlier.
> Right now, we have to create a custom factory and get the things done.  They are not that straight-forward.  If we had access to httpProcessor then no need to create any custom factory.  We can simply add our interceptors directly.
