title: The new pecl_http extension for PHP (version 2)
body: <p>I just saw that there is a new version of the pecl_http extension available, see <a href="http://devel-m6w6.rhcloud.com/mdref/http" rel="nofollow">the documentation</a>. It brings a new interface and has no similarity to the old extension, so I would like to ask wether there are any examples on how to make the extension work? I installed it and the requirements raphf and propro, too. But even a simple </p>
  
  <pre><code>$client = new http\Client();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>gives me a fatal error </p>
  
  <pre><code>Uncaught exception 'http\Exception\UnexpectedValueException' with message 'Failed to locate "(null)" client request handler' in
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Same goes for </p>
  
  <pre><code>$client = new http\Client('curl');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>just with <code>Failed to locate "curl"</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to see  a working example of the instantiation of http\Client and a simple GET request to a website.</p>
