| Representations for HTTP message entities. |
| |
| An {@link org.apache.http.HttpEntity entity} is the optional content of a |
| {@link org.apache.http.HttpMessage message}. |
| You'll find a basic selection of entity implementations here. |
| If you need to send an entity, you can provide it for example as a |
| {@link org.apache.http.entity.ByteArrayEntity byte array}, |
| {@link org.apache.http.entity.StringEntity string}, |
| {@link org.apache.http.entity.FileEntity file}, or through an arbitrary |
| {@link org.apache.http.entity.InputStreamEntity input stream}. |
| If you receive a message with an entity, you typically get that as a |
| {@link org.apache.http.entity.BasicHttpEntity basic} entity. |
| Entity implementations can be |
| {@link org.apache.http.entity.HttpEntityWrapper wrapped}, |
| for example to |
| {@link org.apache.http.entity.BufferedHttpEntity buffer} |
| the content in memory. |
