Class Overview

HTTP entity serializer.

This entity serializer currently supports "chunked" and "identitiy" transfer-coding and content length delimited content.

This class relies on a specific implementation of ContentLengthStrategy to determine the content length or transfer encoding of the entity.

This class writes out the content of HttpEntity to the data stream using a transfer coding based on properties on the HTTP message.
