# 2001-07-27 RCC: This filter will not support the newer get_one() # interface. It gets single things by default, and it does not # support filter switching. If someone absolutely needs to switch to # and from HTTPD filters, they should say so on POE's mailing list.
I've decided to switch to using a SocketFactory to talk to remote servers and then use Wheel::ReadWrite to talk HTTP, but the data coming back will be binary, so I'd like to be able to fetch the headers through Filter::HTTPD and then immediately switch to Filter::Stream. If the current HTTPD filter will let me switch away from it, then I'm good to go, since I don't need to switch back to it for any given Wheel. But if you meant "switch to, from, or to and from" then you can consider this a request for HTTPD to support filter switching. Thanks. :)
