Steven Hawkins resolved TEIID-2956.
-----------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 8.7.1
                   8.8
       Resolution: Done


We'll use a content-type of application/octet-stream (the recommended default) if the content-type is not in the metadata.  Since this is an optionally used value already it doesn't seem necessary to add another parameter.

> If you deploy a vdb that uses the webservices translator in teiid 8.7, and that webservice doesn't have 'Content-Type' set in the response headers then the web service connector code throws a NullPointerException as it tries to retrieve the Content-Type and use it. This happens in the WSConnectionImpl.java class on these 2 lines specifically:
> ArrayList contentTypes = (ArrayList)this.responseContext.get("content-type"); //$NON-NLS-1$
> return new HttpDataSource(url, (InputStream)response.getEntity(), (String)contentTypes.get(0));
> so basically the contentTypes array is null if the response header doesn't containt any 'Content-Type' specified and then 2nd line gets the NullPointerException.
