Constructor Detail

HttpEntityEnclosingRequestBase

public HttpEntityEnclosingRequestBase()

Method Detail

getEntity

public HttpEntity getEntity()

Specified by:

getEntity in interface HttpEntityEnclosingRequest

setEntity

public void setEntity(HttpEntity entity)

Description copied from interface: HttpEntityEnclosingRequest

Hands the entity to the request.

Specified by:

setEntity in interface HttpEntityEnclosingRequest

Parameters:

entity - the entity to send.

expectContinue

public boolean expectContinue()

Description copied from interface: HttpEntityEnclosingRequest

Tells if this request should use the expect-continue handshake. The expect continue handshake gives the server a chance to decide whether to accept the entity enclosing request before the possibly lengthy entity is sent across the wire.

Specified by:

expectContinue in interface HttpEntityEnclosingRequest

Returns:

true if the expect continue handshake should be used, false if not.

clone

public Object clone()
             throws CloneNotSupportedException

Description copied from class: Object

Returns a new instance of the same class as the receiver, whose slots have been filled in with the values in the slots of the receiver.

Classes which wish to support cloning must specify that they implement the Cloneable interface, since the implementation checks for this.

Overrides:

clone in class HttpRequestBase

Returns:

Object a shallow copy of this object.

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException - if the receiver's class does not implement the interface Cloneable.
