This release consists primarily of bug fixes. Please visit the HttpClient website and download this latest release. The following changes have been made since RC2: * HTTP status line parser changed to be more robust when dealing with non-compliant HTTP responses (leading blanks before 'HTTP' signature). * Fixed NPE in HttpMethodBase#responseBodyConsumed(). * 24309 - Changed MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager to move to a single connection GC thread. Fixed memory and thread leaks. * 24327 - Fixed a bug where HttpClient did not reset the 'force-close connection' flag, when an HTTP method was automatically retried (for instance, when automatically handling an authentication challenge). * 24352 - Fixed the bug causing basic authentication via NLTM Proxy to fail. * 25370 - Connections are now closed and released automatically when an unrecoverable exception occurs in HttpMethodBase.processRequest(). * 23866 - Fixed possible uncaught IllegalArgumentException in Cookie parsing. * 25264 - Added support for cookies with a domain attribute '.domain.com' issued by host 'domain.com' in the browser compatibility mode. Even though the cookie violates RFC 2109 it still gets accepted by mainstream browsers (tested with Mozilla Firebird and IE). * 24869 - Changed DigestScheme to only accept a challenge if all fields required by RFC 2617 are present. * 24671 - Added ISO-8859-1 support for digest authentication passwords, and basic authentication user names and passwords. * Javadoc enhancements.
