Class FileCachingHttpClientBuilder

java.lang.Object
net.shibboleth.utilities.java.support.httpclient.HttpClientBuilder
net.shibboleth.utilities.java.support.httpclient.FileCachingHttpClientBuilder
public class FileCachingHttpClientBuilder extends HttpClientBuilder
An HttpClient builder that supports RFC 2616 caching.

Cached content is written to disk. Special care should be taken so that multiple clients do not share a single cache directory unintentionally. This could result in sensitive data being available in ways it should not be.

When using the single-arg constructor variant to wrap an existing instance of CachingHttpClientBuilder, there are several caveats of which to be aware:

  • Several important non-caching-specific caveats are enumerated in this class's superclass HttpClientBuilder.
  • Instances of the following which are set as the default instance on the Apache builder will be unconditionally overwritten by this builder when buildClient() is called:
    • CacheConfig

    This is due to the unfortunate fact that the Apache builder does not currently provide accessor methods to obtain the default instances currently set on the builder. Therefore, if you need to set any default cache config parameters which are not exposed by this builder, then you must use the Apache builder directly and may not use this builder.
