The Jakarta Commons HTTP Client component supports the client-side of RFC 1945 (HTTP/1.0) and RFC 2616 (HTTP/1.1), several related specifications (RFC 2109 (Cookies), RFC 2617 (HTTP Authentication), etc.), and provides a framework by which new request types (methods) or HTTP extensions can be easily created.

Recent releases


Release Notes: An option was added to disable the 'stale' connection check, which may lead to a slight performance improvement at the cost of reduced reliability. Debug logging in the multi-threaded connection manager was improved. URI.normalize() no longer has an effect on relative URIs. The use of sun.* classes in URI.java was removed, the query param encoding was changed to UTF-8, and multiple transfer encoding headers and non-chunked transfer encodings are now handled correctly.


Release Notes: Bugfixes and new features.
