• org.springframework.http.HttpMethod.resolve(String)
• org.springframework.http.HttpRequest.getMethodValue()
• org.springframework.http.client.HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory.setReadTimeout(int)
• org.springframework.http.client.reactive.ClientHttpResponse.getRawStatusCode()

I made an initial pass to remove deprecated APIs in af170f6 and 7df2e2a.

The team will make an additional pass in conjunction with #30604.

In light of that, I am closing this issue.

How should we handle interactions with servers that return non-standard HTTP status codes?

Previously, getRawStatusCode() was a reliable way to retrieve the raw status code without failing. However, now getStatusCode() throws an exception if the response contains an unknown status code, making it problematic when dealing with less strict servers.

What’s the recommended approach to handle this scenario in Spring 6+?

@GregTreat Have you tried applying the advice in the deprecation notice? Using getStatusCode should work for both standard and non-standard status codes. Can you elaborate on the exception thrown, and provide a stacktrace?

[GregTreat]

@bclozel Maybe I missed advice in the deprecation notice. Can you please point me.

[GregTreat]

@bclozel Oh, sorry! It looks like I wasn't up to date. In version 6.x, the failures no longer occur.

It's in the Javadoc: https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/javadoc-api/org/springframework/http/client/ClientHttpResponse.html#getRawStatusCode()
