Proxy : Add a Sampler Creator to allow plugging HTTP based samplers using potentially non textual POST Body (AMF, Silverlight...) and customizing them for others

[asfimport]

@pmouawad (Bug 52674):
It would be useful to have the ability to plug a Sampler Customizer that depending on content type.

One example I need currently is the following:

• For GWT samplers for example it would be useful to be able to directly set element.setProperty(HTTPSamplerBase.POST_BODY_RAW, useRaw, HTTPSamplerBase.POST_BODY_RAW_DEFAULT);

Another requirement I have is to be able to customize created sampler,
A direct use I see is for example a SilverLight or Flex protocol, doing this will enable plugins to implement a factory and use current implementations of Proxy, ProxyControl and HttpRequestHdr.

This could be done by delaying sampler creation until rawPostBody and contentType are available in HttpRequestHdr, once these are available , a factory could be called with content type , this would enable plugging other Samplers than just HttpSampler.

OS: All

Duplicates:

• Proxy : Bug with multipart bytes #2358

Depends on:

• Refactor Proxy and HttpRequestHdr to allow Sampler Creation by Proxy #2736

Blocks:

• Web Services proxy #1784

Hello,
I made some thorough testing of the code.
I also implemented an Binary (POST body) based protocol successfully by implementing a SamplerCreator subclass.
I think this feature will be very useful to allow recording protocols as AMF , Silverlight by plugins.

Can I commit it or you want to review it first ?
Thanks

Regards
Philippe
