| Summary | 0005449: Make it compression-aware. | ||||
| Description | The Twister should be able to handle compressed payloads. Right now it just discards any compression header it gets from the client. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

Setting the HTTP header "Accept-Encoding: deflate" should do the trick. CURLOPT_ENCODING docs sugges that it will set that header, so at least in theory this should be the way to do this. |

Okay, but this (as far as I know) tells half of the story. In particular, after the twister gets the (supposedly) deflated content from the service, it is still not able to re-deflate it (via MHD) and return to the client. What now happens is that the twister returns the non-deflate content to the client but still sets the 'Content-Encoding: deflate' response header, hence making libgnunetcurl complain. So the question is: how does MHD behave? I grepped 'ACCEPT_ENCODING' and 'Accept-Encoding' through the whole source and I could not find any dedicated line.. This suggests that it ignores a client request for compressed data.. Is that correct? |

MHD does not process (or set) accept-encoding headers. If the application sets them, the application is responsible for compressing the body correctly. |
