Hi there,
you may or may not be aware that the HTTPbis WG has been working on a
common structured syntax for new HTTP header (and trailer) fields.
See
<
https://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-httpbis-header-structure-latest.html
and <
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-httpbis-header-structure/
.
This is likely to be approved by the IESG soon, which means the RFC
will
be out in a few months.
I'm working on a Java (8) implementation, see
<https://github.com/reschke/structured-fields>. My intent is to
contribute this to the HttpComponents project once this is stable and
polished (and the RFC is out).
This is more or less complete, and could use feedback.
Hi Julian
That would be an interesting and valuable contribution. We would have
to bump our Java level from 1.7 to 1.8 or 11 for it but I do not see
this as a problem. I would also ask you to make your code a bit more
consistent with the rest of the code base once you have a PR ready.
...
I *think* the changes for Java 1.7 would be easy if needed.
Best regards, Julian
PS: the main reason for asking feedback now is that others who might be
interested do not do duplicate work, and so that feedback like the above
comes in early...
Hi.
How/where would this live in the HttpComponents project? Is it going to
be added/integrated into HttpCore or be its own library for others
(3rd-party projects) to also use?
Best regards.
