Interface HttpRequestFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultHttpRequestFactory

public interface HttpRequestFactory

Factory that prepares Apache HTTP client related objects for the RestClient. The interface has been defined to be able to modify details of the HTTP requests created by the RestClient for special use cases.
