Does the library Apache Commons HttpClient support Gzip? We wanted to use enable gzip compression on our Apache server to speed up the client/server communications (we have a php page that allows our Android application to sync files with the Server).
To turn on Gzip compression, simply add on to the gzip directive in the main Nginx configuration file. $ sudo nano /etc/nginx/nginx. conf gzip on; Add file types to compress.
Gzip is a file format and software application used on Unix and Unix-like systems to compress HTTP content before it's served to a client.
CloseableHttpClient is the base class of the httpclient library, the one all implementations use. Other subclasses are for the most part deprecated. The HttpClient is an interface for this class and other classes. You should then use the CloseableHttpClient in your code, and create it using the HttpClientBuilder .
HttpClient is fully thread-safe when used with a thread-safe connection manager such as MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager.
Apache HttpClient 4.1 supports content compression out of the box along with many other features that were previously considered out of scope.
