Dear admins, The sole patch entry in our database can be safely said to have been resolved as suitable tests have been added and the code modified accordingly. I request the admins to mark the issue closed. url: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=958385&group_id=196670&func=browse Also, as we are now able to support GET requests and have tests for the same, I would also request that our project status be changed to "alpha" from the current "planning" stage.

I'm afraid I still haven't had the time to look thoroughly enough through the code to comment on how complete it is. Dean, if you're comfortable with changing the status, then go ahead. I'll make an effort to go through the latest round of changes and make comments. Regards, Glyn |

I don't feel comfortable writing documentation on an incomplete implementation, but if anybody wants to pick that up -- and take hints from the unit tests -- then I'm all for it. Come to think of it, unless we have either examples or documentation, I don't think users will even trust an Alpha version that doesn't have proper (or even improper) documentation. So let's hold that off until we get some decent documentation and examples out. :-) Divye/Allister, care to work on the documentation part? :-D -- Dean Michael C.

The more examples the better (they would also reveal potential problems with the code), and it would be a good idea to have examples to demonstrate why using this library is an improvement on, say, the HTTP example given with Asio. Also, I don't think its right to say we have an alpha while having GET but not having POST, PUT and DELETE: it is simply incomplete. > > Divye/Allister, care to work on the documentation part? :-D > I can take more responsibility for the documentation - I could always do with improving my technical writing skills :) Regards, Glyn |

I'll try to come up with a command-line analog to wget. That should be a convincing example. ;-) > Also, I don't think its right to say we have an alpha while having GET but > not having POST, PUT and DELETE: it is simply incomplete. > But we not have POST, PUT, DELETE, and HEAD support. :D >> >> Divye/Allister, care to work on the documentation part? :-D > > I can take more responsibility for the documentation - I could always do > with improving my technical writing skills :) > Sounds good to me. :D -- Dean Michael C.

Hi, Divye/Allister, care to work on the documentation part? :-D > I'll have a look at Boost Book later when I get time. Some technical writing would be interesting :-) Maybe I'll come up with something tonight. But for now, I gotta get back to the day job first, hehehe... Cheers, Allister |
