[jira] [Resolved] (HTTPCLIENT-1257) Header location automatically converted to ASCII even though location can contain UTF-8 encoded urls

["Oleg Kalnichevski (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1257?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Oleg Kalnichevski resolved HTTPCLIENT-1257.
-------------------------------------------

    Resolution: Invalid

One can force HttpClient to use a non-ASCII character set for protocol elements by using 'http.protocol.element-charset' parameter. 

http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/fundamentals.html#d5e338

At any rate this issue is not a bug.

> Unfortunately I can't get the resolve Url through the following code:
> Header locationHeader = response.getFirstHeader("location");
> which will return http://handheld.vn/content/4052-Đánh-giá-máy-tính-bảng-Kindle-Fire-HD-7-inch
> The header has already been extracted in the wrong content encoding. I will never be able to get the redirect url!
> I understand that this is not RFC normalised behavior, but the above url and redirect works fine in all browsers.
> Is it possible to access the raw header (byte array) so that I can chose the encoding on my own? This would help a lot. Or a parameter to optionally specify the encoding when fetching a header value.
