that doesn't work on a pipe though.
best solutions i can think of are
- have a call that can retrieve the content-length, then i know how much
to read()
- set a flag telling ne_get to close the fd
will you accept a patch for the latter option? i'm trying to use neon
because it's simpler than some of the others, e.g. libcurl. but i need
a reliable EOF indicator.
Why not simply call close() yourself on the write-end of the pipe? Why
do you need ne_get() to do it?
Right!
thanks
