Alexey Levan commented on HTTPCLIENT-1124:
------------------------------------------

Yes it should be ignored by the server, but that doesn't mean that client
can't send the body. In fact, the part you cited just confirmed that it's
possible. It should be up to the library user to decide whether he wants to
send such a meaningless message.

ignored when handling the request." As the GET method does not describe a

of request. The HTTP spec doesn't prohibit that (AFAIK, even GET requests
with body are allowed), and any spec-compliant implementation shouldn't do
it either. I suggest merging HttpEntityEnclosingRequestBase with
HttpRequestBase, since there's really no reason to make this artifical
restriction.
