How to set the charset in request using apache httpclient fluent 4.3.2

Question

Request.config(CoreProtocolPNames.HTTP_CONTENT_CHARSET, Consts.UTF_8) and Request.elementCharset(charset) are Deprecated.

Now how to set the request charset to utf-8 with fluent?

Request.Post(url)
    .useExpectContinue()
    .version(HttpVersion.HTTP_1_1)
    .bodyString("Important stuff", ContentType.DEFAULT_TEXT)
    .execute().returnContent().asBytes();

Answer 1

That would be the right way doing it

Request.Post("someurl")
        .useExpectContinue()
        .version(HttpVersion.HTTP_1_1)
        .bodyString("Important stuff", ContentType.create("text/plain", Consts.UTF_8))
        .execute()
        .returnContent().asBytes();
