James Abley updated HTTPCLIENT-834:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: 834.patch

Initial patch which introduces gzip and deflate support.

Sorry, mangled git patch. If any of the committers use git, then they should be able to apply it. Otherwise, I'll need to spend some more time understanding how to generate a patch suitable for application with the patch command.

> I would like to see HttpClient features brought up to parity with other libraries, both in Java and other languages. c.f. Python's httplib2 (not yet in the standard library, but many would like to see it in there). That library transparently handles gzip and compress content codings.
> This issue is to capture possible solutions to providing this sort of innate functionality in HttpClient, so that users aren't required to know RFC2616 intimately. The HttpClient library should do the right thing and use the network in the most efficient manner possible.
