[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-3016) Add headers parameter to invokeHttp

[Steven Hawkins (JIRA)]

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Added an optional headers parameter that accepts a JSON clob.

invokeHttp(... headers=>jsonObject('application/json' as ContentType))

The jsonObject and jsonArray functions are helpful for this purpose as we look for a jsonObject with primitive or array of primitive values.

This adds an explicit dependency to the engine (for the JSON handling) but avoids adding another third-party dependency - even if something like httpcore would already exist in AS, it would still increase the embedded footprint.

> There is a need to set common headers, such as content type and accepts.  Since there may be other custom values it probably makes sense to do this as a generic parameter as Ramesh suggests:
>     call restBDM.invokeHttp(action => 'POST', endpoint =>  qp, headers=>'ContentType=application/json;Accepts=application/text')
