How to disable chunking in cxf-jaxrs client

Question

I need to contact a proprietary http service, not supporting chunks. I started using as documented here so i create the client this way:

Client client = ClientBuilder.newBuilder().newClient();
WebTarget target = client.target("http://localhost:8080/rs");

The problem is how to configure the client, how to disable chunking. The way documented here doesn't work for me (wrong classes).

Thanks in advance

Rather that using jaxrs standard Client you can use org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.client.WebClient part of cxf-rt-rs-client dependency.

WebClient client = WebClient.create("http://localhost:8080/rs");
WebClient.getConfig(client).getHttpConduit().getClient().setAllowChunking(false);
