title: HttpClient: disabling chunked encoding
body: <p>I am using the Apache Commons HttpClient along with Restlet to call a restful web service. Unfortunately, my server (based on Ruby on Rails) does not like the <code>Transfer-Encoding: chunked</code> that HttpClient is using by default.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to disable the usage of chunked encoding for POSTs from the client?</p>
