Hi Guys! To those new on the mailing list, welcome -- and to those who have been lurking or wanting to contribute to the effort but find it really hard this lack of direction, then here's your chance.
As most of you already know I'm working on cpp-netlib full-time now. No I still don't have work, so I'm making use of my time in between finding work to work on cpp-netlib and move it closer to something worth submitting into Boost by December this year (yes, 2010). So I'm sending my Google Task list for cpp-netlib to the list so everyone knows what to expect from 0.8. I'll also be creating issues and Wiki pages on the official project repository at http://github.com/cpp-netlib/cpp-netlib. From now on, only experimental "work-in progress" stuff goes onto my repository (and those pull requests from others who want to join the effort should still be sent to my repository) while the "stable" and "milestone" achievements get pushed to the official repo as soon as they are done. If you have any questions or would like clarifications, please feel free to send them in through the mailing list. :D --8<----------- Release 0.8 -- Target is 1st Week of November Integrate XMPP Implementation from Glyn Refactor HTTP Client Constructor to use Boost.Parameter Callback thread pool Configurable number of threads Taken in as constructor parameter to asynchronous HTTP clients Implement Callback-based HTTP Client API Streaming HTTP Client API Implement a basic_response<> which has a boost::asio::iostream bound to a socket for the body Implement a basic_request<> which has a stream for the body client.get(request, callback) where callback is of signature void(basic_response<Tag>) client.put(request) where body(request) models an InputStream Server Handler Facade CRTP to provide default implementation for PUT, POST, GET, and HEAD handlers Simplify parameter and header parsing Simplify parameter validation and requirement specification Web Service Framework Dynamic Handler Registration Path Routing (regex) Request Normalization HTTP Server Handler Work Pool Implement a work pool to handle requests Implement a basic_request<> that has a stream for the body Implement a http_connection<> that exposes asynchronous routines for output Expose a set_headers function that takes a range of pair<string,string> elements and writes that out through the HTTP connection Expose a write function that takes a range as input and asynchronously sends the data through the HTTP connection Expose a close function that closes the connection from the server's end Implement a basic_server<> that requires the handler type to override the function call operator and take a basic_request<> and an http_connection<> as parameters --8<----------------- As always, thanks again for the support and I look forward to your contributions to release 0.8. -- Dean Michael Berris deanberris.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download new Adobe(R) Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 The new Adobe(R) Flex(R) 4 and Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 (formerly Flex(R) Builder(TM)) enable the development of rich applications that run across multiple browsers and platforms.
