Thanks. Great. With GET/HEAD will keep-alive work, too? -eivind ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] On Behalf Of Christian Grothoff [[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2012 11:18 AM To: libmicrohttpd development and user mailinglist Subject: Re: [libmicrohttpd] queueing requests

Yes. > What would be the ramifications of queueing an error response immediately? That MHD does not send "100 CONTINUE" if the protocol is HTTP/1.1 and the client asked for 100 CONTINUE. So if you queue the error message immediately (during PUT/POST), you avoid the traffic upload from the client. For GET/HEAD requests, it makes no difference whatsoever (you can even queue 200 OK instantly without complications). Happy hacking! Christian
