The serializer member is renamed to keep_alive()
Actions Required:
* Use serializer::keep_alive instead of serializer::close and
take the logical NOT of the return value.
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
serializer interface is changed to be buffer-only, no streams,
and placed in its own header file.
Operations on serializers are moved to free functions as part
of the HTTP write family of synchronous and asynchronous algorithms.
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.
This eliminates beast::write output for dynamic buffers and replaces
it with the function ostream() that wraps a caller provided dynamic
buffer and returns the result as a std::ostream derived object.
Callers may now produce formatted output into any object meeting the
requirements of DynamicBuffer using operator<< and the standard stream
modifiers such as std::endl.
This new technique is more efficient, as implementations of operator<<
can now write directly into the output using std::ostream::write and
std::ostream::put.
Example of use:
beast::streambuf sb;
beast::ostream(sb) << "Hello, world!" << 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#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#154, fix#156
This adds public interfaces for transforming buffer
sequences into their chunk-encoded equivalents. The
transformations are O(1) in space and time.
Conform to the Networking TS by renaming the Streambuf concept
to DynamicBuffer in all places. Values of types meeting the
requirements of DynamicBuffer are renamed to dynabuf.
See:
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2015/n4478.html#requirements.dynamic_buffers
* Headers renamed
* Formal parameter names renamed
* Template argument types renamed
* Documentation updated
