Tcl Source Code

Hi everyone,

we installed the latest tcl package provided by suse 9.2 
these days.
it seems that there is no feature development for the 
http-library.
some time ago we made changes to http.tcl to get it 
running with some of the http/1.1 features because we 
had some troubles when talking to M$ IIS.

*) added handling of chunked transfers
*) added handling of http 100 status code (continue)
*) for convenience: added http::meta to get all server 
response headers

feel free to include the changes to http.tcl in future 
releases.

cheers,
christoph

Note that -keepalive is 0 by default because the tclvfs code it inherited from had poor pipeline handling.

A variant based on http 2.6 that was in tclvfs was used instead for http 2.7 core in 8.5.2.  Diff attached.  If you want to revisit and modify/add new features, that's fine.  http 2.7 only added a few geturl options (-keepalive and -protocol, with -strict, -method and -myaddr orthogonal) with underlying changes to get the pipelining.

This will likely be backported to 8.4.19 as well.  8.4 features are used (no 8.5 features).
