...after the method line:
"Since the Host field-value is critical information for handling a
request, a user agent SHOULD generate Host as the first header field
following the request-line." / RFC 7230 section 5.4
Additionally, this will also make libcurl ignore multiple specified
custom Host: headers and only use the first one. Test 1121 has been
updated accordingly

Modified sws to support and use custom CONNECT responses instead of the
previously naive hard-coded version. Made the HTTP test server able to
extract test case number from the host name in a CONNECT request by
finding the number after the last dot. It makes 'machine.moo.123' use
test case 123.
Adapted a larger amount of tests to the new <connect> style.

Reported by: Martin Jansen
There's a new 'http-proxy' server for tests that runs on a separate port
and lets clients do HTTP CONNECT to other ports on the same host to
allow us to test HTTP "tunneling" properly.
Test cases now have a <proxy> section in <verify> to check that the
proxy protocol part matches correctly.
Test case 80, 83, 95, 275, 503 and 1078 have been converted. Test 1316
was added.
version 1.1 instead of 1.0 like before. This change also introduces the new
proxy type for libcurl called 'CURLPROXY_HTTP_1_0' that then allows apps to
switch (back) to CONNECT 1.0 requests. The curl tool also got a --proxy1.0
option that works exactly like --proxy but sets CURLPROXY_HTTP_1_0.
I updated all test cases cases that use CONNECT and I tried to do some using
--proxy1.0 and some updated to do CONNECT 1.1 to get both versions run.
are not, due mainly to the lack of support for XML character entities
(e.g. & => & ). This will make it easier to validate test files using
tools like xmllint, as well as edit and view them using XML tools.
responded with a single status line and no headers nor body. Starting now, a
HTTP response on a persistent connection (i.e not set to be closed after the
response has been taken care of) must have Content-Length or chunked
encoding set, or libcurl will simply assume that there is no body.
To my horror I learned that we had no less than 57(!) test cases that did bad
HTTP responses like this, and even the test http server (sws) responded badly
when queried by the test system if it is the test system. So although the
actual fix for the problem was tiny, going through all the newly failing test
cases got really painful and boring.
A) Normal non-proxy HTTP:
- no more "Pragma: no-cache" (this only makes sense to proxies)
B) Non-CONNECT HTTP request over proxy:
- "Pragma: no-cache" is used (like before)
- "Proxy-Connection: Keep-alive" (for older style 1.0-proxies)
C) CONNECT HTTP request over proxy:
- "Host: [name]:[port]"
- "Proxy-Connection: Keep-alive"
no fixed port numbers in use anymore. Starting now, the default ports the
servers use are 8990 - 8993. There's no option to modify these yet, but
changing the $base option in the top of the runtests.pl script.
