[jira] [Commented] (HTTPCLIENT-1116) ResponseCachingPolicy uses integers for sizes

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1116?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13084585#comment-13084585 ]

-----------------------------------------------

Greg,
There is certainly a way to fix the problem without breaking API compatibility at all, which would be preferred.

> ResponseCachingPolicy currently uses integers for interpreting the size of Content-Length, as well internally.
> This causes issues in attempting to use the module for caching entities that are over 2GB in size, the module does not fail gracefully, but throws a NumberFormatException
> I have a patch that fixes this, by promoting the int -> long, which should allow for larger entities to be cached, it also updates the public facing API where possible, I don't think that the promotion should break compatibility massively
> The changes can also be seen here:
