Tobias Oberlies commented on HTTPCLIENT-1757:
---------------------------------------------

Is there an attribute of the {{HttpContext}} that provides the current {{HttpRequest}}?

> We use HttpClients for a system test of a REST API. We are using ResponseHandlers to directly convert the response entity to a data structure that is suitable for assertions.
> This works very well, except for the occasional case where the system under test responds with an unexpected status code. In this case, the response handler throws an exception. For a good error message, it would be useful to also include the request URL. However the request object is not available in the ResponseHandler.handleResponse method.
> So this is a request to also make the HttpRequest object available in the ResponseHandler.handleResponse method. This could be done by adding a getter in the HttpResponse class, or by creating a new interface (e.g. HttpResponseHandler2) with a two-parameter handleResponse method.
