/php-src/ext/standard/tests/filters chunked_001.phpt
Modified files:
/php-src NEWS
/php-src/ext/standard filters.c http_fopen_wrapper.c
Log:
- Added "dechunk" filter which can decode HTTP responces with chunked transfer-encoding. HTTP streams use this
filter automatically in case "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" header presents in responce. It's possible to disable
this behaviour using "http"=>array("auto_decode"=>0) in stream context
- Fixed bug #47021 (SoapClient stumbles over WSDL delivered with
"Transfer-Encoding: chunked")
Although its great that this is implemented as a filter I'm a bit
sceptical on removing the header from the response, and enabling this
by default is quite a big change considering PHP has never supported
chunked encoding and bunch of userland implementations exist for it.

The header needs to be taken out so the caller knows that the content is
no longer chunked. It would however be nice if some header was added
indicating that the data had been chunked. Similar to how ext/http does
it where it changes the Transfer-Encoding header to
X-Original-Transfer-Encoding.
