- Method Detail
  - setInterceptors
```
public void setInterceptors(List<ClientHttpRequestInterceptor> interceptors)
```
    Set the request interceptors that this accessor should use.
    The interceptors will get immediately sorted according to their order.

    getRequestFactory(), AnnotationAwareOrderComparator
  - getInterceptors
```
public List<ClientHttpRequestInterceptor> getInterceptors()
```
    Get the request interceptors that this accessor uses.
    The returned List is active and may be modified. Note, however, that the interceptors will not be resorted according to their order before the ClientHttpRequestFactory is built.
  - setRequestFactory
```
public void setRequestFactory(ClientHttpRequestFactory requestFactory)
```
    Set the request factory that this accessor uses for obtaining client request handles.
    The default is a SimpleClientHttpRequestFactory based on the JDK's own HTTP libraries (HttpURLConnection).
    Note that the standard JDK HTTP library does not support the HTTP PATCH method. Configure the Apache HttpComponents or OkHttp request factory to enable PATCH.
    Overrides:
    setRequestFactory in class HttpAccessor

public ClientHttpRequestFactory getRequestFactory()

    Overridden to expose an InterceptingClientHttpRequestFactory if necessary.
    Overrides:
    getRequestFactory in class HttpAccessor
