Comment on Installing JDeveloper 11g on Ubuntu 8.10 by Robert Nocera

Performance has been one of it’s weaknesses in general in my opinion. Each release has been getting better and better for the most part, especially since the Tech Previews.

I have not used it extensively on Linux yet to be able to let you know what the performance really is like.

Did you use it intensively with a Fusion app?

I am curious about the performance of the beast under linux because under windows it’s really weak on that point.

Thanks for that, jpswain, I hadn’t had time to look into it yet.

Ok, I feel silly coming back to answer my own question, but I figured it out, for anyone who might want to use httpclient 4.x:
The important thing is that your HttpPost must use the BasicHttpParams and can’t have useExpectContinue set to true. This is what caused a 417 Expectation Failed response for me.

Like this:
// >> Set Hostname
hostname = “twitter.com”;
// >> HttpParams
HttpParams params = new BasicHttpParams();
// NOTE This following line cannot set true or you get error 417 Expectation Failed.
HttpProtocolParams.setUseExpectContinue(params, false);
HttpProtocolParams.setVersion(params, HttpVersion.HTTP_1_1);
standardHttpPostParams = params;
// >> AuthScope
authScope = new AuthScope(hostname, 80);
// >> Credentials
credentials = new UsernamePasswordCredentials(username, password);
// >> Client
client = new DefaultHttpClient(getStandardPostParams());
applyCredentials(client);

Actually I haven’t tried it with 4.x I was using 3.1 at the time.

Just curious if you tried getting this to work with http-client 4.x (http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client/index.html)
I have been able to get it work ok with the GET requests on the Twitter API, as well as the POST ones. The problem is that with the POST ones I have to encode the params into the URL myself. Using the methods in the client examples did not work. Just curious.
Thanks for posting how to do it with the 3.x client!
