Description

This happens if, for example, an http 404 occurs at sending. If the caller app wants to retrieve the response using Response<ResponseBean>.get(), it hangs forever. If it implements the AsynHandler<ResponseBean> method, handleResponse never gets called, which means that the app does not get notified of the exception. The attached patches are against
