Class HttpRequestBody

java.lang.Object

org.expath.httpclient.HttpRequestBody

Direct Known Subclasses:

HrefRequestBody, MultipartRequestBody, SinglePartRequestBody

public abstract class HttpRequestBody
extends java.lang.Object

The body of an HTTP request. The body of a multipart request is a composite of several bodies. A request body encapsulates the NodeInfo of http:body (or http:multipart.) This element won't change during the extension execution anyway. The idea is to be able to serialize it only when we need to, directly to the connection output stream (so avoiding to parse it to an intermediary format.)
