[jira] [Updated] (NET-369) Article.addHeaderField() is currently
write-only - there is no way to retrieve the headers - is it needed?
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-369?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Sebb updated NET-369:
---------------------
Description:
The method addHeaderField() stores a header name/value in a StringBuffer, but provides no means to return the contents of the buffer.
Either the method and the field should be deleted, or there should be a getHeader() method - in which case the storage mechanism should probably be changed to a HashMap of some kind to make it easier to return individual header values.
