[jetty-users] HttpClient with custom Protocol Version

[Karel Goderis <karel.goderis@xxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I have the need to set up an http session between a client and server that is 99% following standard HTTP/1.1 but from time to time the client has to send Http messages over that connection using a custom protocol version instead of the HTTP/1.1 verb

I had the same case a few months ago in the opposite way (e.g. the server sending custom protocol version messages), which I solved by implementing a custom HttpGenerator. 

What is the equivalent solution at the client side? On a more general note, is there any documentation that explains the jetty client architecture, it is not clear how all the Http*.java classes interact with each other, and which one (HttpClientTransport?) has to be modified in this case?

Thanks for any pointer
Karel
