Sebb commented on HTTPCLIENT-1621:
----------------------------------

Autoboxing applies at compilation time, so it should be source compatible.

I don't believe it will be binary compatible because the parameter types are 
part of the method signature.
Code compiled against the Long API won't be able to find the long version.

>             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: HttpClient
>    Affects Versions: 4.4 Final
>            Reporter: Michael Osipov
>            Assignee: Michael Osipov
>             Fix For: 4.4.1, 4.5 Alpha1
>
>
> The method accepts a {{Long}} as first arg and not {{long}} (simple type). 
> This might lead to an NPE.
> I think this is also safe to fix for 4.4.x because due to autoboxing this 
> would be transparent.
