Why cartridge agent have httpclient and httpcore dependencies?

Hi,

When you extract cartridge agent zip, we have these two jars in *lib*.
httpclient-4.1.1-wso2v1.jar
httpcore-4.1.0-wso2v1.jar

Are we using these? If so, where are these dependencies coming from? How
can I change the versions?

Thanks.

Hi Raj,

If you need to exclude a particular jar when CA is built, you can use [1]
to do it. See the excludes section under dependencySet. We used the same
method earlier to stop bundling jars with Apache2 incompatible licenses to
CA. What you can do is, add the required http* jar versions to the pom so
that it will be automatically bundled by the maven assembly plugin that we
use in CA, and then use the above method to stop bundling unwanted
versions.

Thanks Isuru and Udara.

Yes we are not using these at the moment.

I am planning to implement a solution to track disconnected instances
(spawned but not tracked by stratos). I need to use httpclient and httpcore
for accessing instance metadata service (ec2 and openstack). But I need
later versions. That't why I asked whether we are using this particular
version anywhere in CA. Seems we are not.

 I will update the thread with more details later.

Thanks.

Hi,

Currently we can remove them since CA does not do any HTTP calls.



Touched, not typed. Erroneous words are a feature, not a typo.

Hi Raj,

Do we have any HTTP based communication in CA? For an example, like
accessing a rest endpoint? If so these jar might be required for that.
