Activates 'Expect: 100-continue' handshake for the entity enclosing methods. The purpose of the 'Expect: 100-continue' handshake to allow a client that is sending a request message with a request body to determine if the origin server is willing to accept the request (based on the request headers) before the client sends the request body.
The use of the 'Expect: 100-continue' handshake can result in noticable peformance improvement for entity enclosing requests (such as POST and PUT) that require the target server's authentication.
'Expect: 100-continue' handshake should be used with caution, as it may cause problems with HTTP servers and proxies that do not support HTTP/1.1 protocol.
This parameter expects a value of type Boolean.
