I agree with this response. Thanks Oleg for all of the hard work you've done (as well as everyone else who have contributed). I will take a clean API over a backwards-compatible one any day.
I honestly didn't find the transition from 3 to 4 to be that shocking, and we're using some fairly advanced features.

The new APIs are much cleaner, and definitely less buggy than 3.x. Considering the effort the guys have put in to providing a robust, consistent, and not to mention free library for our use, I think you need to get over yourself. If you want to stick with 3.x you are free to do so. If not, you should thank Oleg et al for a job well done. -----Original Message----- From: tommmmmm [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, April 06, 2012 8:05 AM To: HttpClient User Discussion Subject: What.... happened? I used to work with HttpClient for some time now (with someone else's project). And I liked it. Got pretty advanced with it too. ... and then the day come I wanted to use it for my own project. Downloaded it... and? OMG it's different. Everything IS literally different. This is the first time I saw so big change between versions. Nothing is compatible.... I need to le-learn everything. The term Backward compatibility is unknown to the apache people..... I am just so disappointed in you. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[email protected]
