retrofit + okhttp : Retrieve GZIPInputStream

Question

I have a problem when i activate gzip on WS using retrofit 1.4.1 and okhttp 1.3.0. ``` RequestInterceptor requestInterceptor = new RequestInterceptor() { @Override public void intercept(RequestFacade request) { request.addHeader("content-type", "application/json"); request.addHeader("accept-encoding", "gzip"); // Here is the problem } }; RestAdapter restAdapter = new RestAdapter.Builder() .setEndpoint(Constants.HOST) .setLogLevel(RestAdapter.LogLevel.FULL) .setRequestInterceptor(requestInterceptor) .build(); ``` If I comment the following line `request.addHeader("accept-encoding", "gzip");` there is no problem but if gzip is activated, i get an error (my request falls in `failure`). Here is my logcat with `request.addHeader("accept-encoding", "gzip");` ``` 1326 Retrofit D : HTTP/1.1 200 OK 1326 Retrofit D Cache-Control: public, max-age=600 1326 Retrofit D Content-Encoding: gzip 1326 Retrofit D Content-Length: 254 1326 Retrofit D Content-Type: application/json 1326 Retrofit D Date: Wed…

Accepted Answer

Just omit the `accept-encoding` header from your code. OkHttp will add its own `accept-encoding` header, and if the server responds with gzip then OkHttp will silently unzip it for you.
