Detailed Description

A generic parser for HTTP responses.

This class implements a parser for HTTP responses. The parser derives from the HttpMessageParserBase class and implements its own state machine on top of it. The states of the parser reflect various parts of the HTTP message being parsed, e.g. parsing HTTP version, status code, message body etc. The descriptions of all parser states are provided below together with the constants defining these states.

The response parser validates the syntax of the received message as it progresses with parsing the data. Though, it doesn't interpret the received data until the whole message is parsed. In most cases we want to apply some restrictions on the message content, e.g. responses to control commands include JSON body. The parser doesn't verify if the message meets such restrictions until the whole message is parsed, i.e. stored in the HttpResponseContext object. This object is associated with HttpResponse object (or its derivation). When the parsing is completed, the HttpResponse::create method is called to retrieve and interpret the data from the context. In particular, the HttpResponse or its derivation checks if the received message meets the desired restrictions.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

isc::http::HttpResponseParser::HttpResponseParser ( HttpResponse &  response )

explicit

Constructor.

Creates new instance of the parser.

Parameters

response

Reference to the HttpResponse object or its derivation that should be used to validate the parsed response and to be used as a container for the parsed response.

Definition at line 41 of file response_parser.cc.

Member Function Documentation

void isc::http::HttpResponseParser::initModel

(

)

Initialize the state model for parsing.

This method must be called before parsing the response, i.e. before calling HttpResponseParser::poll. It initializes dictionaries of states and events, and sets the initial model state to RECEIVE_START_ST.

Definition at line 47 of file response_parser.cc.
