Field Detail

DEFAULT

@Deprecated
public static final BasicHeaderValueFormatter DEFAULT

Deprecated. (4.3) use INSTANCE

A default instance of this class, for use as default or fallback. Note that BasicHeaderValueFormatter is not a singleton, there can be many instances of the class itself and of derived classes. The instance here provides non-customized, default behavior.

INSTANCE

public static final BasicHeaderValueFormatter INSTANCE

SEPARATORS

public static final java.lang.String SEPARATORS

Special characters that can be used as separators in HTTP parameters. These special characters MUST be in a quoted string to be used within a parameter value .
