  • Support for circular and relative redirects
  • Added support for SAX parsing, see SaxAsyncHttpResponseHandler

  • Removed unnecessary (ambiguous) callback methods (were deprecated in 1.4.4)
  • Added JsonStreamerEntity to allow up streaming JSON data
  • Added possibility to modify blacklisted/whitelisted exceptions (see RetryHandler)
  • Using newCachedThreadPool() as default ExecutorService in library, with option to change it via main interface

    • GZIP compressed communication
    • Binary handler (receives byte[] without parsing/converting)
    • File response handler (saving response directly into given File)
    • Self-signed CA sample (how to pin SSL certificate or add custom trust-chain for requests)
    • Persistent cookies store (persisting cookies between requests)

  • Not creating new Thread if call initiated outside of UI Thread (broken, fixed in 1.4.5)
  • Support for changing response Charset (default still UTF-8)
