The MessageBodyWriter selected to write an instance of a Java type to
the output stream.
What Java type are you using? One solution is to support a message
body writer for your type.
The only other solution i can think is to check if a Content-Length
header is set and obtain the size from that which will override that
from the MessageBodyWriter. Could you log an issue?

Right.

I know, not much i can do about that as it is a restriction in
HttpURLConnection. The Apache HTTP client does not have those
restrictions. Note that for this client non-buffering is enabled when
chunked encoding is set. However, the code does report the size if
know, but i do not know if the client uses the size (if > 0) instead
of chunked encoding.
