* Send HTTP requests with a single send() call instead of many.Jeremy Hylton2002-07-161-15/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The implementation now stores all the lines of the request in a buffer and makes a single send() call when the request is finished, specifically when endheaders() is called. This appears to improve performance. The old code called send() for each line. The sends are all short, so they caused bad interactions with the Nagle algorithm and delayed acknowledgements. In simple tests, the second packet was delayed by 100s of ms. The second send was delayed by the Nagle algorithm, waiting for the ack. The delayed ack strategy delays the ack in hopes of piggybacking it on a data packet, but the server won't send any data until it receives the complete request. This change minimizes the problem that Nagle + delayed ack will cause a problem, although a request large enough to be broken into two packets will still suffer some delay. Luckily the MSS is large enough to accomodate most single packets. XXX Bug fix candidate?

* Fix for SF bug 579107.Jeremy Hylton2002-07-091-36/+88
| | | | | | | | | | The recent SSL changes resulted in important, but subtle changes to close() semantics. Since builtin socket makefile() is not called for SSL connections, we don't get separately closeable fds for connection and response. Comments in the code explain how to restore makefile semantics. Bug fix candidate.
* Fix for SF bug #432621: httplib: multiple Set-Cookie headersJeremy Hylton2002-07-071-2/+108
| | | | | | | | | | If multiple header fields with the same name occur, they are combined according to the rules in RFC 2616 sec 4.2: Appending each subsequent field-value to the first, each separated by a comma. The order in which header fields with the same field-name are received is significant to the interpretation of the combined field value.

* Handle HTTP/0.9 responses.Jeremy Hylton2002-07-061-19/+132
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Section 19.6 of RFC 2616 (HTTP/1.1): It is beyond the scope of a protocol specification to mandate compliance with previous versions. HTTP/1.1 was deliberately designed, however, to make supporting previous versions easy.... And we would expect HTTP/1.1 clients to: - recognize the format of the Status-Line for HTTP/1.0 and 1.1 responses; - understand any valid response in the format of HTTP/0.9, 1.0, or 1.1. The changes to the code do handle response in the format of HTTP/0.9. Some users may consider this a bug because all responses with a sufficiently corrupted status line will look like an HTTP/0.9 response. These users can pass strict=1 to the HTTP constructors to get a BadStatusLine exception instead. While this is a new feature of sorts, it enhances the robustness of the code (be tolerant in what you accept). Thus, I consider it a bug fix candidate. XXX strict needs to be documented.

* Fixes for two separate HTTP/1.1 bugs: 100 responses and HTTPS connections.Jeremy Hylton2002-06-281-32/+102
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The HTTPResponse class now handles 100 continue responses, instead of choking on them. It detects them internally in the _begin() method and ignores them. Based on a patch by Bob Kline. This closes SF bugs 498149 and 551273. The FakeSocket class (for SSL) is now usable with HTTP/1.1 connections. The old version of the code could not work with persistent connections, because the makefile() implementation read until EOF before returning. If the connection is persistent, the server sends a response and leaves the connection open. A client that reads until EOF will block until the server gives up on the connection -- more than a minute in my test case. The problem was fixed by implementing a reasonable makefile(). It reads data only when it is needed by the layers above it. It's implementation uses an internal buffer with a default size of 8192. Also, rename begin() method of HTTPResponse to _begin() because it should only be called by the HTTPConnection.

* [Bug #531616] Make HTTPS work again by adding a sendall method to theAndrew M. Kuchling2002-03-181-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | FakeSocket class. Without it, the sendall() call got the method on the underlying socket object, and that messed up SSL. Does httplib use other methods of sockets that FakeSocket doesn't support? Someone should take a look... (I'll try to give it a once-over.) 2.2.1 bugfix candidate.
* Fix SF bug 525520.Jeremy Hylton2002-03-091-20/+34

* SF bug report #405939: wrong Host header with proxyJeremy Hylton2002-03-081-3/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In August, Greg said this looked good, so I'm going ahead with it. The fix is different from the one in the bug report. Instead of using a regular expression to extract the host from the url, I use urlparse.urlsplit. Martin commented that the patch doesn't address URLs that have basic authentication username and password in the header. I don't see any code anywhere in httplib that supports this feature, so I'm not going to address it for this fix. Bug fix candidate.

* Fix for SF buf #458835Jeremy Hylton2001-10-111-3/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Try to be systematic about dealing with socket and ssl exceptions in FakeSocket.makefile(). The previous version of the code caught all ssl errors and treated them as EOF, even though most of the errors don't mean EOF. An SSL error can mean on of three things: 1. The SSL/TLS connection was closed. 2. The operation should be retried. 3. An error occurred. Also, if a socket error occurred and the error was EINTR, retry the call. Otherwise, it was a legitimate error and the caller should receive the exception.

* Resolve patch #449367.Greg Stein2001-08-181-15/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | For the HTTPS class (when available), ensure that the x509 certificate data gets passed through to the HTTPSConnection class. Create a new HTTPS.__init__ to do this, and refactor the HTTP.__init__ into a new _setup method for both init's to call. Note: this is solved differently from the patch, which advocated a new **x509 parameter on the base HTTPConnection class. But that would open HTTPConnection to arbitrary (ignored) parameters, so was not as desirable.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | socket in httplib.py. The bug reports that on Windows, you must pass sock._sock to the socket.ssl() call. But on Unix, you must pass sock itself. (sock is a wrapper on Windows but not on Unix; the ssl() call wants the real socket object, not the wrapper.) So we see if sock has an _sock attribute and if so, extract it. Unfortunately, the submitter of the bug didn't confirm that this patch works, so I'll just have to believe it (can't test it myself since I don't have OpenSSL on Windows set up, and that's a nontrivial thing I believe).
