http2client-java8

An experimental Java 8 backport of the incubating Java 10 high-level HTTP and WebSocket API (the jdk.incubator.http package).

HTTP 1.1 and 2 are both supported, as is SSL. Works also on Java 9 and Java 10. The minimum runtime requirement is OpenJDK (Oracle) Java 8.

Since the CompletableFuture from Java 8 doesn't implement the (JEP 266) features needed for the Java 9 implementation of the HTTP client a backport of the Java 9 CompletableFuture is necessary as a Maven dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>net.sourceforge.streamsupport</groupId>
    <artifactId>java9-concurrent-backport</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.0</version>
</dependency>

Logging is not functional yet. The code has seen very little testing and is still in development. Don't use this in production!
