Who is supposed to be calculating the content-length header when using
wsgiutils and paster to run a simple http server?
I have have gzip setup in a use-filter on a composit with paste#urlmap
I change GZipResponse.write to print the length of string s.
It prints
compressed length 1319
But, having turned on debugging in httplib2, I see this:
reply: 'HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\n'
header: Server: SimpleHTTP/0.6 Python/2.4.2
header: Date: Wed, 08 Nov 2006 16:39:26 GMT
header: Content-Type: application/binary
header: Accept-Ranges: bytes
header: Last-Modified: Wed, 08 Nov 2006 16:39:26 GMT
header: ETag: 1163003966.18
header: Content-Range: 0-6310/6311
header: Content-Length: 6311
header: content-encoding: gzip
I believe that 6311 is the non-compressed length.
I am using DataApp to return the data.
I guess DataApp sets the content-length, but gzipper needs to override that
header.

So, I have hacked in a content-length header change in gzipper, but I doubt it
will
work if underlying app writes directly to the return channel. My understanding
of
how that works is pretty weak, so some smarter person than I will need to fix
up
