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#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#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#114, fix#117, fix#136
* Added init() to Reader requirements
* Reader must be nothrow constructible
* Reader is now constructed right before reading the body
- The message passed on construction is filled in
New parser set_option function for controlling independent size limits
on headers and body. By default request and response parsers are set up
with reasonable limits to prevent resource exhaustion attacks.
* Parser adheres strictly to rfc7230
* Increased test coverage
* Headers and body maximum size limit options
A new concept Parser is introduced with routines to read from a stream
into the parser. This solves a problem with the old read interface where
messages must be default constructible and move assignable.
Parser fixes:
* Fix detect invalid reason-phrase octets
* Fix write_eof to set the 'complete' state on success
* Fix consider parse complete if eof received on empty body
WebSocket:
