A minor fix, when handling the 207 Multi Status status code.
Now, once this status code is received, the http->result is
set to HT_MULTI_STATUS (line 310).

New WebDAV module and new Extension Methods for experimenting with HTTP.
Manuele Kirsch

JK: Enhancement, added a new field to the HTResponse object to
store the HTTP reason sent by the server. Two new functions to
get it/set it: HTResponse_reason(), HTResponse_setReason()

JK: different patches contributed by JensM and GertjanvW

JK: Aligning with libwwwv3.0.0

JK: added an extra line

JK: fixed two bad memory access problems.
Added more code to protect against an error occuring after a POST or PUT.

JK: fixed some problems where non-allocated memory was accesed.
    Fixed an infinite loop while freeing resources.

JK: removed the HTTP/0.9 downgrade. Many times, because of timeouts,
this mode kicked in and messed everything.

JK: redirections weren't working well under Windows. Applied a patch from
the libwww-dev tree

fixed spelling error

Committing a set of patches that fixed the problem with listening on
sockets. The implementation is still client specific - it doesn't
handle generic incoming connections. However, it works for FTP and the
simple listen sample application. A future architecture should support
incoming connections as well as outgoing connections. For now, the
mget tool also works when downloading multiple files from an FTP
server using both PASV and PORT.

Raffaele Sena: Auth problem: On Windows (maybe because the page I was
trying to access, because I'm sure I tested this a long time ago and
it worked) the next event after 401 was HTEvent_CLOSE.  This caused
the initial code in HTTPEvent to do an HTTPCleanup() with status
HT_LOADED (and consequently to not process the filter for the
authentication error).

I changed the code to do a HTTPCleanup with the current result stored
in http->result and everything seems to work, both on Linux and
Windows, for authenticated pages or regular pages.

Changed behavior in failed PUT/POST operations where the server sends
back a 100 Continue temporary status code but then immediately closes
the connection without accepting the data that we are trying to
upload. The old behavior was to try and recover over and over again
which could cause a loop. Now, it only recovers 1 time after which it
fails and terminates the request.

Committed patch to HTTP module which allows a data feeding callback
(for example used to PUT or POST) to be called multiple times. Before
it was only called once but now it is called as long as it returns
HT_OK. It stops being called when the callback returns something else
than HT_OK.

added stream handler for HTTP 101 Switching Protocol Status code

Fixed a problem handling HTTP/1.0 style connection close with no content-length but only a TCP close

NEW TRACE MESSAGES - see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-lib/1999JanMar/0267.html for details

Updated HTTP to use the more normal DEBUG define and not HTTP_DUMP for enabling saving requests and responses asis to wwwhttp.out

Moved initialization of cache filters to HTCacheInit instead of in HTInit. This means that if you are setting up the cache yourself then you should now only call HTCacheInit - no filters. The rest is done for you. Also fixed bug where the cache meta files were read more than once for no good reason

Fixed cache bug that caused the error message from failed authentication etc. to be cached in stead of the 200 OK style response. Also fixed a memory leak where the response headers weren't free'd when getting the meta information from the cache

Don't send out Connection: Keep-alive if the user has added a Connection: close directive

Added debug stream to HTTP reader stream so that the raw content on the HTTP response is logged as well as the raw content of the HTTP request in the wwwhttp.out file when running with protocol trace turned on

Fixed timer problems that gave confusion about who should delete timers. Now they are always deleted by the creater. This also affects some of the problems that people may have experienced with lack of timeouts. Ths fix also involves a pending queue fix to the Host manager when running out of available sockets

Changed support for HTTP/0.9 as it is more likely a broken HTTP/1.0 server than actually an HTTP/0.9 server. If anybody has problems with this then we will have to make the check more suphisticated. Also added fix to handle broken NCSA server

cvs likes a terminating LF which some editors don't seem to add

Added support for setting the delay for writing the body of an HTTP PUT or POST request (the delay is necessary to make the operations reliable)

Fixed a bug in HTTP.c pointed out by Mike Bennett. When a write fails the correct behavior is to attempt too recover the pipeline and not to abort it.

Adding support for killing a pipeline and also the patch provided by Mike Bennett on the memory leak in the stream stack builder

A set of changes: 1) Added support for etags in 201 responses. This will help avoiding overrides of PUT 2) Added timeout support. Default timeout in webbot and command line tool is 20secs. Can be changed using the -timeout option 3) Fixed a problem that prevented idle connections to be closed after 60 secs idle time. Client side closes are a lot easier to deal with 4) Expanded progress flags in HTAlert to be 32 bit instead of 16 bit as I was running out of flags.

Fixed PUT problem when a 100 Continue code came more than 2 secs after the request.

Added interrupt alert message to HTTP.c

Introduction of referer field in the HTTP request. Automatic
redirection on client side (max 10) and a whole lot of other changes

HTRequest_clear handling has been moved to library. Referer field in
HTTP request. HTError modification.

HTFWriter_filename made PUBLIC; ERR_INFO introduced into HTError.c

I/O cache of host names introduced in HTTCP.c; HTDoConnect and
HTDoAccept moved to HTTCP.c; Added one parameter to HTParseInet in
order to tell if it is a multihomed host. Automatic redirection
introduced into HTTP.c

A whole lot of changes. Maimly in HTFile.c where directory stuff is
removed; HTTP where structure is changed and HTFTP where HTDoConnect
now is ported to VMS (I hope ;-))

httpd 3.0pre5.

Fixed the bug in HTDirBrw.c that handled failing of stat() to abort --
with e.g. AFS it's not fatal if stat() fails.

This went out with httpd 3.0pre4.

strcasestr() which is like strstr() but not case-sensitive.
HTErrnoString() that returns the errno translated to the string (does
something like HTInetStatus(), but doesn't print it to stderr but
gives it as result so we can send it to client).

Fixed security holes with gopher, ftp, news, and especially telnet.
Also fixed unescaping problem in news module.

Some small fixes to make proxy server work better + added no-close
option for HTWriter + fixed conflicts in FTP module after Henrik's
rewrite.

Content-Length no longer set for directories (because it was WRONG!)

Now stdout is not closed in HTFWriter

Buf fix

Commented out gateway caching

little merges

After purify

Took away the wrap()-thing from HTRules

Defined S_ISDIR and S_ISREG for NeXT.

Daemon-specific stuff from rule file removed.

Multiformat handling works!

- moved daemon-access-authorization files to daemon
- fixed directory indexing with trailing slash
- access authorization now works through firewalls
- Users and Anybody now special predifined group names
- multilanguage/encoding handling -- intelligent algorithm still
  missing
- so suffixes now handle also encoding/language
- content-length, last-modified

First version having AA using HTRequest structure.  This seems to work
pretty well with server, but I've been unable to test it with linemode
which doesn't compile currently, so prepare yourself for client
coredumps. :-(  It may also be that AA just simply doesn't let you know
about itself at all -- so it may also appear to be dead instead of
killing the whole client.  Now I'm going home to get some sleep --
staying up 34 hours is starting to get to me.

progress continues.. untested

First compile with cache code in

adding HTMLPDTD files

Comnpiles but untested

VMS update of library: not all AA taken care of yet...
CVS:

Bug fixes for first AA release :-(
1. Now doesn't skip every other ACL entry.
2. Fixed another problem with ACL reading: didn't handle correctly
   multiple whitespaces inside ACL entries.
3. Fixed a short-cut in authorization checker (previously first IP
   address mismatch caused a fail).
4. Doesn't crash if group file is not set.
5. Doesn't hold the connection open while prompting password from user
   (connects only after Authorization: field is already composed).

Added first version of access authorization in.

Duns' mods for VMS - not VMS tested yet

buf fix sgml.c?

Binary transfer problems fixed, quick etst ok

Now tested on VM/CMS
