[cpp-netlib-devel] Merging http_integration to trunk?

[Dean M. B. <mik...@gm...>]

Glyn/Mike,

Would you agree that the current HTTP client implementation is worthy
of a merge to trunk already?

It would also be nice if we put up an alpha release of the library
because the HTTP 1.0 client is pretty much usable already.

Let me know what you think!

Yeah, I think so.  All tests pass so I feel that's OK.  What more is there
to do in the way of HTTP integration?  Is this branch left open for more
changes and periodically merged back into trunk?  Or do we close it and make
new branches when there is a new task?

Yes, according to the mantra "release early and often" (though we're really
stretching the meaning of the word 'early').

I'd like to keep it open. The only time I think we should kill this
branch is when we have:

* HTTP 1.0/1.1 Client
  - cookie support
  - (1.1) persistent connection support
  - (1.1) request pipelining
  - client that supports asynchronous completion handlers
* HTTP Server
  - 1.0 support
  - 1.1 support for persistent connections
  - 1.1 support for pipelining

It's good to keep developing on a branch that we keep re-merging into
the trunk. :)

Yep. :D

Do you know if Subversion already supports 1.5 merge tracking support?

I found this:
http://subversion.tigris.org/svn_1.5_releasenotes.html#merge-tracking

and I think the answer is "not completely".

Oh, in my haste I asked the wrong question. :P

I meant does _Sourceforge_ already support Subversion 1.5 merge tracking. :D

Oh, sorry, I couldn't find any more information about that.

It's alright Glyn, thanks. :)

I'm just going to send an email to Subversion support to ask about it.
They did an upgrade of the Subversion system some time ago along with
the web system. I'm not sure they're related though.

Time to put the administrator hat on for me. ;)

Hi Everyone,

Just a heads up, I've merged http_integration from 1-71 to trunk. This
is now in revision 72.

I'll soon be packaging an alpha version of the software.

Glyn, do you think we should merge whatever you have in the
documentation into the trunk as well before we create the alpha
package?

PS. Apparently Sourceforge still doesn't support Subversion 1.5 merge
tracking. So right now we have to do the merging manually.
