[cpp-netlib-devel] Reviving the Discussion

[Dean M. C. B. <dmb...@fr...>]

Okay folks, I'm back...

Now though I will be able to develop the C++ Network Library as one of
the things I need to do as part of the work I do. Right now the short
list to cpp-netlib 1.0 is given below -- most of which can be
accomplished in a few days/hours, which I intend to do. This time
there's no promises, but I'll just in other words "do it" ;) -- please
take the list below as the minimum, if there are other things that
people think should get in, I'd be glad to add them to the list, but I
will need help. I'm writing down things I will do:

- Complete HTTP 1.0 client (GET, POST, with error handling and HTTP
redirect support)
- Partial HTTP 1.1 client (HTTP 1.0 features, support for persistent
connection)
- More tests
- Refactor HTTP URI parser (maybe integrate external contributions from
libpion)
- Simple HTTP 1.1 protocol parser

I know it's a long time coming, but right now this library is somewhat
needed sorely already so I'll do my best and put in some "sit down" time
on this.

I'll keep everyone posted.

(NOTE: I've recently checked in a few fixes to make the tests build and
run fine, please expect activity in the next few days in the subversion
repository.)
