/**
 * A utility for retrieving data from a URL.
 *
 * HttpRequest can be used to obtain data from http, ftp, and file
 * protocols.
 *
 * For example, suppose we're developing these API docs, and we
 * wish to retrieve the HTML of the top-level page and print it out.
 * The easiest way to do that would be:
 *
 *     var httpRequest = HttpRequest.get('http://api.dartlang.org',
 *         (request) => print(request.responseText));
 *
 * **Important**: With the default behavior of this class, your
 * code making the request should be served from the same origin (domain name,
 * port, and application layer protocol) as the URL you are trying to access
 * with HttpRequest. However, there are ways to
 * [get around this restriction](http://www.dartlang.org/articles/json-web-service/#note-on-jsonp).
 *
 * See also:
 *
 * * [Dart article on using HttpRequests](http://www.dartlang.org/articles/json-web-service/#getting-data)
 * * [JS XMLHttpRequest](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/XMLHttpRequest)
 * * [Using XMLHttpRequest](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/XMLHttpRequest/Using_XMLHttpRequest)

   *
   * By default this will do an HTTP GET request, this can be overridden with
   * [method].
   *
   * The Future is completed when the response is available.
   *
   * The [withCredentials] parameter specified that credentials such as a cookie
   * (already) set in the header or
   * [authorization headers](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1945#section-10.2)
   * should be specified for the request. Details to keep in mind when using
   * credentials:
   *
   * * Using credentials is only useful for cross-origin requests.
   * * The `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` header of `url` cannot contain a wildcard (*).
   * * The `Access-Control-Allow-Credentials` header of `url` must be set to true.
   * * If `Access-Control-Expose-Headers` has not been set to true, only a subset of all the response headers will be returned when calling [getAllRequestHeaders].
   *
   * Note that requests for file:// URIs are only supported by Chrome extensions
   * with appropriate permissions in their manifest. Requests to file:// URIs
   * will also never fail- the Future will always complete successfully, even
   * when the file cannot be found.
   *
   * See also: [authorization headers](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication).
