Switch to HttpClient async API #6021

Open ebruchez opened 10 months ago

ebruchez commented 10 months ago

Right now, HTTP calls in Orbeon Forms are generally synchronous. When we start an async submission, we still use the synchronous API, but we wrap it inside a worker thread using an ExecutorCompletionService.

However, we should instead try to use async APIs all the way. See doc.

With the JS environment, we are using Future (#4077).
