Hello.
I am using http core NIO and investigating how to provide feedback on upload
(PUT/POST) and download (GET) entity enclosing requests. Essentially, I'd
like to know when a certain number of the overall bytes have been
transmitted/consumed. Do you have any strategies for this for NIO?
Thanks,
Adrian Cole

Interesting perspective, Oleg. I think I have something I can work with
here. Thanks for the advise.

Not necessarily, I would go as far as saying every more or less complex
application should always implement custom entity classes optimized for that
particular application.

Wrapping content codecs with a custom decorator class should also work. You
could use NHttpConnectionBase#createChunkDecoder /
NHttpConnectionBase#createContentEncoder methods to do that. However, those
methods were added to the 4.1 branch, so you will have to use 4.1 snapshots for
the time being.
Otherwise, its looking like AOP is the way out here...

This helps, Oleg.
However, it seems a brittle approach as it would require several custom
classes. It seems what is purely necessary is getting access to
ContentEncoder/Decoder. Are there any lifecycle hooks where I can get a
handle on these before they are used, or access a factory that provides
them? Otherwise, its looking like AOP is the way out here...
What do you think?

Adrian,
The recommended (and the easiest) way to have a complete control over the data
transmission process is by providing custom implementations of
ConsumingNHttpEntity / ProducingNHttpEntity interfaces
http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-core/httpcore-nio/apidocs/org/apache/http/nio/entity/ConsumingNHttpEntity.html
http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-core/httpcore-nio/apidocs/org/apache/http/nio/entity/ProducingNHttpEntity.html
Hope this helps
Oleg
