public final class ApacheHttpTransport extends HttpTransportDeprecated. Please use com.google.api.client.http.apache.v2.ApacheHttpTransport provided by the com.google.http-client:google-http-client-apache-v2 artifact.
Thread-safe HTTP transport based on the Apache HTTP Client library.
Implementation is thread-safe, as long as any parameter modification to the Apache HTTP Client is only done at initialization time. For maximum efficiency, applications should use a single globally-shared instance of the HTTP transport.
Default settings are specified in #newDefaultHttpClient(). Use the #ApacheHttpTransport(HttpClient) constructor to override the Apache HTTP Client used. Alternatively, use #ApacheHttpTransport() and change the #getHttpClient(). Please read the Apache HTTP Client connection management tutorial for more complex configuration options.
Static Methods
newDefaultHttpClient() (deprecated)
public static DefaultHttpClient newDefaultHttpClient()Creates a new instance of the Apache HTTP client that is used by the #ApacheHttpTransport() constructor.
Use this constructor if you want to customize the default Apache HTTP client. Settings:
- The client connection manager is set to ThreadSafeClientConnManager.
- The socket buffer size is set to 8192 using HttpConnectionParams#setSocketBufferSize.
- <The retry mechanism is turned off by setting
new DefaultHttpRequestRetryHandler(0, false). - The route planner uses ProxySelectorRoutePlanner with ProxySelector#getDefault(), which uses the proxy settings from system properties.

Constructors
ApacheHttpTransport() (deprecated)
public ApacheHttpTransport()Constructor that uses #newDefaultHttpClient() for the Apache HTTP client.
Use Builder to modify HTTP client options.
ApacheHttpTransport(HttpClient httpClient) (deprecated)
public ApacheHttpTransport(HttpClient httpClient)Constructor that allows an alternative Apache HTTP client to be used.
Note that a few settings are overridden:
- HTTP version is set to 1.1 using HttpProtocolParams#setVersion with HttpVersion#HTTP_1_1.
- Redirects are disabled using ClientPNames#HANDLE_REDIRECTS.
- ConnManagerParams#setTimeout and HttpConnectionParams#setConnectionTimeout are set on each request based on HttpRequest#getConnectTimeout().
- HttpConnectionParams#setSoTimeout is set on each request based on HttpRequest#getReadTimeout().
Use Builder for a more user-friendly way to modify the HTTP client options.
