    • rewriteRequestURI

      protected void rewriteRequestURI​(RequestWrapper request, HttpRoute route) throws ProtocolException
      Throws:
      ProtocolException
    • execute

      public HttpResponse execute​(HttpHost target, HttpRequest request, HttpContext context) throws HttpException, IOException
      Description copied from interface: RequestDirector
      Executes a request.
      Note: For the time being, a new director is instantiated for each request. This is the same behavior as for HttpMethodDirector in HttpClient 3.
      Specified by:
      execute in interface RequestDirector
      Parameters:
      target - the target host for the request. Implementations may accept null if they can still determine a route, for example to a default target or by inspecting the request.
      request - the request to execute
      context - the context for executing the request
      Returns:
      the final response to the request. This is never an intermediate response with status code 1xx.
      Throws:
      HttpException - in case of a problem
      IOException - in case of an IO problem or if the connection was aborted
    • releaseConnection

      protected void releaseConnection()
      Returns the connection back to the connection manager and prepares for retrieving a new connection during the next request.
    • determineRoute

      protected HttpRoute determineRoute​(HttpHost target, HttpRequest request, HttpContext context) throws HttpException
      Determines the route for a request. Called by execute(org.apache.http.HttpHost, org.apache.http.HttpRequest, org.apache.http.protocol.HttpContext) to determine the route for either the original or a followup request.
      Parameters:
      target - the target host for the request. Implementations may accept null if they can still determine a route, for example to a default target or by inspecting the request.
      request - the request to execute
      context - the context to use for the execution, never null
      Returns:
      the route the request should take
      Throws:
      HttpException - in case of a problem
    • establishRoute

      protected void establishRoute​(HttpRoute route, HttpContext context) throws HttpException, IOException
      Establishes the target route.
      Parameters:
      route - the route to establish
      context - the context for the request execution
      Throws:
      HttpException - in case of a problem
      IOException - in case of an IO problem
    • createTunnelToTarget

      protected boolean createTunnelToTarget​(HttpRoute route, HttpContext context) throws HttpException, IOException
      Creates a tunnel to the target server. The connection must be established to the (last) proxy. A CONNECT request for tunnelling through the proxy will be created and sent, the response received and checked. This method does not update the connection with information about the tunnel, that is left to the caller.
      Parameters:
      route - the route to establish
      context - the context for request execution
      Returns:
      true if the tunnelled route is secure, false otherwise. The implementation here always returns false, but derived classes may override.
      Throws:
      HttpException - in case of a problem
      IOException - in case of an IO problem
    • createTunnelToProxy

      protected boolean createTunnelToProxy​(HttpRoute route, int hop, HttpContext context) throws HttpException, IOException
      Creates a tunnel to an intermediate proxy. This method is not implemented in this class. It just throws an exception here.
      Parameters:
      route - the route to establish
      hop - the hop in the route to establish now. route.getHopTarget(hop) will return the proxy to tunnel to.
      context - the context for request execution
      Returns:
      true if the partially tunnelled connection is secure, false otherwise.
      Throws:
      HttpException - in case of a problem
      IOException - in case of an IO problem
    • createConnectRequest

      protected HttpRequest createConnectRequest​(HttpRoute route, HttpContext context)
      Creates the CONNECT request for tunnelling. Called by createTunnelToTarget.
      Parameters:
      route - the route to establish
      context - the context for request execution
      Returns:
      the CONNECT request for tunnelling
    • handleResponse

      protected RoutedRequest handleResponse​(RoutedRequest roureq, HttpResponse response, HttpContext context) throws HttpException, IOException
      Analyzes a response to check need for a followup.
      Parameters:
      roureq - the request and route.
      response - the response to analayze
      context - the context used for the current request execution
      Returns:
      the followup request and route if there is a followup, or null if the response should be returned as is
      Throws:
      HttpException - in case of a problem
      IOException - in case of an IO problem
