Java OData Service does not accept plus (+) signs in URI

Question

I am trying to issue the following query using Apache Olingo for OData using Java:

URI customersUri = client.newURIBuilder(serviceRoot)
          .appendEntitySetSegment("Customers")
          .filter("CustomerID eq 'Joe'")
          .build();

The expected query string that I want is: $filter=CustomerID eq 'Joe'

However, when the library builds the above URI, the actual query string becomes like this:

%24filter%3DCustomerID+eq+%27Joe%27

Now, the problem is that when I use this query string for my OData Service, it seems that it does not accept the plus (+) signs. However, when removing the plus signs and use space instead, it works
Any help about this or recommendations please? Thanks

This is a bug that was fixed in the V4 4.0.0-beta-03 release. Maybe your client library is out of date.

If I update the client library, then all my code has to change. Is there a way i can replace the plus sign with a %20 in the URI object? – user3423878 Mar 10 '16 at 21:01
@user3423878: Sorry, but I don't know enough about Olingo to answer your question. – lencharest Mar 11 '16 at 21:53
