Port details
apache-commons-httpclientPackage implementing the client side of the HTTP standard
3.1_7javaΣ=0 3.1_7Version of this port present on the latest quarterly branch.
DEPRECATED: The Commons HttpClient project is end of life. Replaced by the Apache HttpComponents project in port www/httpclient. EXPIRATION DATE: 2026-10-31
The Jakarta Commons HttpClient component provides an efficient, up-to-date,
and feature-rich package implementing the client side of the most recent HTTP
standards and recommendations.
Designed for extension while providing robust support for the base HTTP
protocol, the HttpClient component may be of interest to anyone building
HTTP-aware client applications such as web browsers, web service clients,
or systems that leverage or extend the HTTP protocol for distributed
communication.
===> The following configuration options are available for apache-commons-httpclient-3.1_7:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation

java/apache-commons-httpclient: set expiration date
The port has known vulnerabilities and is already deprecated.
Expire as the last two consumers (editors/openoffice-*) are now also set to
expire.

java/apache-commons-httpclient: deprecate
Superseded by www/httpclient.
No expiration date as editors/openoffice-4 and editors/openoffice-devel
depend on it.

java/apache-commons-httpclient: make backwards compatible with java 8
Dependency openoffice needs java 8. Without this patch openoffice fails
with:
bad class file:
/usr/local/share/java/classes/commons-httpclient.jar(org/apache/commons/httpclient/HttpClient.class)
class file has wrong version 65.0, should be 52.0
Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the
classpath.
So make httpclient target java 8 for now.
While here I added encoding= to javac instead of the REINPLACE_CMD statement.

Mk/Uses/java.mk: Runtime fix with USES=java:ant
USES=java:ant does not imply USES=java:run so we need to add the run arg
seperately when we are using USES=java:ant. Not all ports require the
the argument so it is better to address the ports individually instead
of handling it automatically by implying run for ant.
Thanks to vvd for carefully going through this.

Mk/**java.mk: Convert bsd.java.mk to USES
The following features have been added or changed:
- Instead of USE_JAVA use USES=java. This defaults to
USES=java:build,run if NO_BUILD is undefined. Else it defaults to
USES=java:run
- Instead of USE_ANT=yes use USES=java:ant which also implies
USES=java:build
- Instead of JAVA_BUILD=yes use USES=java:build. Does not imply run or
extract
- Instead of JAVA_EXTRACT=yes use USES=java:extract does not imply
build or run
- Instead of JAVA_RUN=yes use USES=java:run does not imply extract or
build
- Instead of USE_JAVA=<version> use USES=java and JAVA_VERSION=<version>

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
