New classes are introduced to represent HTTP messages and their
associated bodies. The parser interface is reworked to use CRTP,
error codes, and trait checks.
New classes:
* basic_headers
Models field/value pairs in a HTTP message.
* message
Models a HTTP message, body behavior defined by template argument.
Parsed message carries metadata generated during parsing.
* parser
Produces parsed messages.
* empty_body, string_body, basic_streambuf_body
Classes used to represent content bodies in various ways.
New functions:
* read, async_read, write, async_write
Read and write HTTP messages on a socket.
New concepts:
* Body: Represents the HTTP Content-Body.
* Field: A HTTP header field.
* FieldSequence: A forward sequence of fields.
* Reader: Parses a Body from a stream of bytes.
* Writer: Serializes a Body to buffers.
basic_parser changes:
* add write methods which throw exceptions instead
* error_code passed via parameter instead of return value
* fold private member calls into existing callbacks
* basic_parser uses CRTP instead of virtual members
* add documentation on Derived requirements for CRTP
impl/http-parser changes:
* joyent renamed to nodejs to reflect upstream changes
* Rename unity files
* Move some modules to new subdirectories
* Remove obsolete Visual Studio project files
* Remove obsolete coding style and TODO list
* Automatic source list built via directory iteration
* Build multiple toolchains and flavors simulaneously:
- Toolchains: gcc, clang, msvc
- Flavors: debug, release
* Documentation on aliases (top of the SConstruct file)
* Header-only!
* No external dependencies or other beast modules
* Compilation options allow for:
- Stand-alone application to run a single test suite
- Stand-alone application to run a set of test suites
- Global suite of tests inline with the host application
- Disable test suite generation completely
* Existing tests reworked to use the new classes
* New basic_abstract_ostream template for generic output
* New abstract_ostream, common type alias
* basic_scoped_ostream, RAII output to abstract streams
* No longer requires its own compiler include path
* Includes use relative paths to locate the file
* Client applications include the file themselves
* Inclusion of BeastConfig.h can be controlled via preprocessor directive
