All of the work below has been completed except for the errno==32 stuff.
Module: http://www.lyra.org/greg/python/httplib.py
History: http://www.lyra.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gjspy/httplib.py/
There are three items left, that I know of:
1) need doc for new stuff
2) need new test cases
3) I want to remove a "feature" of the old HTTP class. This would be a
change in behavior, but (IMO) minor. Specifically, if the Status-Line
is malformed, the old httplib.py would return (-1, <malformed line>,
None) and store <file ob hooked to socket> into self.file. Nominally,
that file object allows a client to read more data from the socket
after the parse problem on the malformed Status-Line. I think it is
useless, unused by any clients out there, and it causes me pain to
provide it :-) I'd like to just store None into self.file
Thoughts? Comments? I'd like to get this thing into Python RSN.
Cheers,
