Function Documentation
globus_result_t globus_xio_handle_cntl (handle, driver,
GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_HANDLE_SET_RESPONSE_HEADER, const char * header_name,
const char * header_value)
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Set the value of a response HTTP header. Parameters:
header_name Name of the HTTP header to set.
header_value Value of the HTTP header
Certain headers will cause changes in how the HTTP protocol will be
handled. These include:
· Transfer-Encoding: {identity|chunked} Override the default transfer
encoding. If a server knows the exact length of the message body, or
does not intend to support persistent connections, it may set this
header to be ’identity’.
If this is set to ’identity’ and any of the following are true, then
the connection will be closed after the end of the response is sent:
· A Content-Length header is not present
· The HTTP version is set to ’HTTP/1.0’
· The Connection header is set to ’close’ Attempts to set this to
’chunked’ with an ’HTTP/1.0’ client will fail with a
GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_HTTP_INVALID_HEADER error.
· Content-Length: 1*Digit
· Provide a content length for the response message. If the ’chunked’
transfer encoding is being used, then this header will be silently
ignored by the HTTP driver.
· Connection: close
· The HTTP connection will be closed after the end of the data
response is written.
Returns:
This handle control function can fail with
· GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_MEMORY
· GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_PARAMETER
· GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_HTTP_INVALID_HEADER
globus_result_t globus_xio_handle_cntl (handle, driver,
GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_HANDLE_SET_RESPONSE_STATUS_CODE, int status)
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Set the response status code. Parameters:
status Value in the range 100-599 which will be used as the HTTP
response code, as per RFC 2616.
If this cntl is not called by a server, then the default value of 200
(’Ok’) will be used. If this is called on the client-side of an HTTP
connection, the handle control will fail with a
GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_PARAMETER error.
Returns:
This handle control function can fail with
· GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_PARAMETER
globus_result_t globus_xio_handle_cntl (handle, driver,
GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_HANDLE_SET_RESPONSE_REASON_PHRASE, const char * reason)
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Set the response reason phrase. Parameters:
reason The value of the HTTP response string, as per RFC 2616.
If this cntl is not called by a server, then a default value based on
the handle’s response status code will be generated. If this is called
on the client-side of an HTTP connection, the handle control will fail
with a GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_PARAMETER error.
Returns:
This handle control function can fail with
· GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_MEMORY
· GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_PARAMETER
globus_result_t globus_xio_handle_cntl (handle, driver,
GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_HANDLE_SET_RESPONSE_HTTP_VERSION,
globus_xio_http_version_t version)
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Set the response HTTP version. Parameters:
version The HTTP version to be used in the server response line.
If this cntl is not called by a server, then the default of
GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_VERSION_1_1 will be used, though no HTTP/1.1 features
(chunking, persistent connections, etc) will be assumed if the client
request was an HTTP/1.0 request. If this is called on the client-side
of an HTTP connection, the handle control will fail with
GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_PARAMETER.
Returns:
This handle control function can fail with
· GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_MEMORY
· GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_PARAMETER
globus_result_t globus_xio_handle_cntl (handle, driver,
GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_HANDLE_SET_END_OF_ENTITY)
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Indicate end-of-entity for an HTTP body. HTTP clients and servers must
call this command to indicate to the driver that the entity-body which
is being sent is completed. Subsequent attempts to write data on the
handle will fail.
This handle command MUST be called on the client side of an HTTP
connection when the HTTP method is OPTIONS, POST, or PUT, or when the
open attributes indicate that an entity will be sent. This handle
command MUST be called on the server side of an HTTP request connection
when the HTTP method was OPTIONS, GET, POST, or TRACE.
globus_result_t globus_xio_attr_cntl (attr, driver,
GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_ATTR_SET_REQUEST_METHOD, const char * method)
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Set the HTTP method to use for a client request. Parameters:
method The request method string (’GET’, ’PUT’, ’POST’, etc) that
will be used in the HTTP request.
If this is not set on the target before it is opened, it will default
to GET.
This attribute is ignored when opening the server side of an HTTP
connection.
Setting this attribute may fail with
· GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_MEMORY
· GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_PARAMETER
globus_result_t globus_xio_attr_cntl (attr, driver,
GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_ATTR_SET_REQUEST_HTTP_VERSION,
globus_xio_http_version_t version)
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Set the HTTP version to use for a client request. Parameters:
version The HTTP version to use for the client request.
If the client is using HTTP/1.0 in a request which will send a request
message body (such as a POST or PUT), then the client MUST set the
’Content-Length’ HTTP header to be the length of the message. If this
attribute is not present, then the default of
GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_VERSION_1_1 will be used.
This attribute is ignored when opening the server side of an HTTP
connection.
globus_result_t globus_xio_attr_cntl (attr, driver,
GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_ATTR_SET_REQUEST_HEADER, const char * header_name,
const char * header_value)
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Set the value of an HTTP request header. Parameters:
header_name Name of the HTTP header to set.
header_value Value of the HTTP header
Certain headers will cause the HTTP driver to behave differently than
normal. This must be called before
· Transfer-Encoding: {identity|chunked} Override the default transfer
encoding. If a server knows the exact length of the message body, or
does not intend to support persistent connections, it may set this
header to be ’identity’.
If this is set to ’identity’ and any of the following are true, then
the connection will be closed after the end of the message is sent:
· A Content-Length header is not present
· The HTTP version is set to ’HTTP/1.0’
· The Connection header is set to ’close’ Attempts to set this to
’chunked’ with an ’HTTP/1.0’ client will fail with a
GLOBUS_XIO_ERROR_HTTP_INVALID_HEADER error.
· Content-Length: 1*Digit
· Provide a content length for the response message. If the ’chunked’
transfer encoding is being used, then this header will be silently
ignored by the HTTP driver.
· Connection: close
· If present in the server response, the connection will be closed
after the end of the data response is written. Otherwise, when
persistent connections are enabled, the connection may be left open
by the driver. Persistent connections are not yet implemented.
