["Steffen Pingel (JIRA)" <xm...@ws.apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLRPC-131?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12464939 ] 

Steffen Pingel commented on XMLRPC-131:
---------------------------------------

MyHttpClientTransport.java  is a stripped down version of the custom transport used in the Mylar project: http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/indextech.cgi/org.eclipse.mylar/org.eclipse.mylar.trac.core/src/org/eclipse/mylar/internal/trac/core/util/TracHttpClientTransportFactory.java?view=markup . It is meant as an example why the patch is needed.

> As mentioned in XMLRPC-101 comment 7 it is not easily possible to add proxy and ssl support to XmlRpcCommonsTransport. The client and method fields should be made accessible to sub-classes for better extensibility. Currently using reflection is the only work around to access these.
> I have attached a patch that contains an additional change:
> Calling the protected method newHttpClient() from the constructor is error prone. The constructor of sub-classes overriding it has not been completed when it is run so assignments to fields etc. has not been done. I moved the call to initHttpHeaders() instead
