Setting attachHeadersAsQueryString flag to False breaks long polling

[devslam]

Describe the bug
I'm creating a socket with long polling and it works when the attachHeadersAsQueryString flag is set True. However, it breaks when the attachHeadersAsQueryString flag is set True. It sends a request once and does not poll again.

I suspect it's because we're not sending in the ?X-Atmosphere-Transport=long-polling query parameter when the flag is set to False
Atmosphere Info

• version: 2.4.30
• atmosphere.js version: 2.3.8-javascript

Expected behavior
I'm expecting long polling to work when I set the attachHeadersAsQueryString flag to False. However it does not. I'm expecting it to poll consistently. It sends a request once and does not poll again.

It's my understanding that setting the flag to False would still send in query parameters that are required for long polling to work; it would not send in "debug/informational" headers as a query string

Note: Long polling works when the attachHeadersAsQueryString flag is set to True

Screenshots
If you look at the screenshots here. The X-Atmosphere-Transport=long-polling query parameter isn't being passed in when the attachHeadersAsQueryString flag is set to True

Flag set to True

Flag set to False

Systems (please complete the following information):

• OS: macOS
• Browser name and version: Chrome 88
• Java version and distribution: Java 8
• Server name and version: Tomcat 7.0.94

Additional context
The reason why I'm setting the attachHeadersAsQueryString flag to False is because I don't think it's necessary to send in the following headers as query strings
X-Atmosphere-tracking-id=*************
X-Atmosphere-Framework=2.3.8-javascript
X-atmo-protocol=true

@devslam Are you able to reproduce with the latest version of Atmosphere? 2.4 is old...

I'll try it. Though shouldn't I be trying to reproduce it with the latest version of the JS library?

I'm able to reproduce this with Atmosphere 2.6.4 and Atmosphere.js 3.0.6. It seems like the issue would be with the JS library b/c it's not sending the X-Atmosphere-Transport=long-polling query parameter when attachHeadersAsQueryString is set to false

@jfarcand I am also facing the same issue even when setting the fallbackTransport to streaming also. We request to provide inputs on this on priority
