fix#446
* Read signatures no longer include `opcode`
* stream::got_binary and stream::got_text inform the caller if
the current incoming message is binary or text.
Actions Required:
* Remove the `opcode` reference parameter from calls to synchronous
and asynchronous read functions, replace the logic with calls to
stream::got_binary and stream::got_text instead.
fix#446
* The read_message_max option struct is removed.
Actions Required:
* Change call sites which use read_message_max with set_option to
call stream::read_message_max instead.
fix#446
* message_type is removed
Actions Required:
* Change call sites which use message_type with set_option
to call stream::binary or stream::text instead.
fix#374, fix#446
* auto_fragment option struct is removed
Actions Required:
* Change call sites which use auto_fragment with set_option
to call stream::auto_fragment instead.
* header::result is a family of functions to replace header::status
* header interface now uses status enum and also ints
* reason-phrase is no longer stored unless the user explicitly
requests it.
* When serializing, the standard reason is used for the
corresponding status code unless the user has changed it.
fix#404
Parsing and serialization interfaces have been fine tuned and unified.
For parsing these stream operations are defined:
* read
* read_header
* read_some
* async_read
* async_read_header
* async_read_some
For serialization these stream operations are defined:
* write
* write_header
* write_some
* async_write
* async_write_header
* async_write_some
fix#397
method enum class is added to represent all known request methods.
Functions are provided to convert from strings to and from the method
enumeration.
The fields container is modified to also work with the enum.
A new class `serializer` is introduced to permit incremental
serialization of HTTP messages. Existing free functions are
re-implemented in terms of this new class.
* The BodyReader concept is refined to support a greater variety
of strategies for providing buffers representing the body to
the serialization algorithms.
* Added buffer_body, a new model of Body which allows the caller
to provide a series of owned buffers using their own serialization
loop.
* Added empty_body, a model of Body which is for serialization only,
to represent HTTP messages with no content body.
* Removed overloads of write and async_write which send only
the HTTP header.
* Removed public interfaces for performing low-level chunk encoding.
The concept type traits are renamed for consistency,
and consolidated into a single header file <beast/core/type_traits.hpp>
A new section, Core Concepts, is added to the documentation describing all
of the core utility classes and functions. This also includes a complete
explanation and sample program describing how to write asynchronous initiation
functions and their associated composed operations.
A new function, buffers(), returns an implementation defined object
which wraps a ConstBufferSequence and supports formatting to a
std::ostream.
The function to_string is removed, as the new implementation allows
conversion to string using boost::lexical_cast on the return value
of the call to buffers(). Streaming to an output stream is more
efficient: no dynamic allocations are performed.
Example:
streambuf sb;
std::cout << buffers(sb.data()) << std::endl;
fix#124
The http::header data members "method", "url", and "reason"
are changed from data members, to pairs of get and set
functions which forward the call to the Fields type used
to instantiate the template.
Previously, these data members were implemented using
std::string. With this change, the implementation of the
Fields type used to instantiate the template is now in
control of the representation of those values. This permits
custom memory allocation strategies including uniform use of
the Allocator type already provided to beast::http::basic_fields.
fix#80, #212, fix#303, fix#314, fix#317
websocket::stream now provides the following families of
functions for performing handshakes:
When operating in the server role:
* stream::accept
* stream::accept_ex
* stream::async_accept
* stream::async_accept_ex
When operating in the client role:
* stream::handshake
* stream::handshake_ex
* stream::async_handshake
* stream::async_handshake_ex
Member functions ending with "_ex" allow an additional
RequestDecorator parameter (for the accept family of
functions) or ResponseDecorator parameter (for the
handshake family of functions).
The decorator is called to optionally modify the contents
of the HTTP request or HTTP response object generated by
the implementation, before the message is sent. This
permits callers to set the User-Agent or Server fields,
add or modify HTTP fields related to subprotocols, or
perform any required transformation of the HTTP message
for application-specific needs.
The handshake() family of functions now have an additional
set of overloads accepting a parameter of type response_type&,
allowing the caller to receive the HTTP Response to the
Upgrade handshake. This permits inspection of the response
to handle things like subprotocols, authentication, or
other application-specific needs.
The new implementation does not require any state to be
stored in the stream object. Therefore, websocket::stream
objects are now smaller in size.
The overload of set_option for setting a decorator on the
stream is removed. The only way to set decorators now is
with a suitable overload of accept or handshake.
fix#123fix#154fix#265
This completely replaces the HTTP parser used to read and
parse incoming messages. The new version is faster than
the old one, and written in fewer lines. A summary of
changes:
* parse and async_parse renamed to read and async_read
* basic_parser is optimized for linear buffers,
use flat_streambuf for the best performance with these
functions:
- http::read
- http::read_some
- http::async_read
- http::async_read_some
* The overloads of read() and async_read() which take
just a header have been removed, since they would
throw away important parse metadata.
* The derived class callbacks for basic_parser have
been streamlined. All strings passed to callbacks
are presented in their entirety, instead of being
provided in pieces.
These changes allow use-cases that were previously
difficult or impossible, such as:
- Efficient relaying
- Late body type commitment
- Expect: 100-continue handling
fix#242
* Add public constructors
* Add handler_ptr::empty()
* Add handler_ptr::element_type
* Remove make_handler_ptr free function
* Compiler error if element_type is an array type
* handler_ptr::get() returns nullptr if no object is owned
fix#215
This change guarantees that temporary memory allocated
through the asio hooks by the Beast implementation is
deallocated before invoking the final handler when performing
composed operations.
The change is accomplished by replacing std::shared_ptr with
a thread-safe custom container handler_ptr to manage composed
operation state. The container tracks other instances which
manage the same object and resets them in a safe way before
invoking the final handler.
handler_ptr is provided as a public interface so that users of
this library can utilize the same idiom to write their own
composed operations.
fix#171
Several names and HTTP identifiers are renamed to be
more consistent, self-explanatory, and concise:
* "Fields" is a collection of HTTP header fields (rfc7230 section 3.2)
* "Header" is the Start Line plus Fields. Another way to look at it is,
the HTTP message minus the body.
* `basic_fields` replaces `basic_headers`
* `fields` replaces `headers`
* `Fields` replaces `Headers` in template parameter lists
* `header` replaces `message_headers`
* `header::fields` replaces `message_headers::fields`
The changes are cosmetic and do not affect run-time behavior.
fix#127
* Added beast::detail::ignore_unused based on boost::ignore_unused
* Added -Wextra compilation flag when building with gcc
* Fixed all unused parameter warnings with ignore_unused
* Fixed all missing includes when building each .hpp separately
