[issue10721] Remove HTTP 0.9 server support

Martin Panter added the comment: V4 patch adjusting to recent code change. Raymond: Given the problems caused by the current code, would you reconsider your opposition? Otherwise, what do you think should be the future of the code? Should we fix it so that it handles real HTTP 0.9 requests,

[issue10721] Remove HTTP 0.9 server support

Martin Panter added the comment: Here is a slightly updated patch I have been sitting on. I think the main difference was tweaks to the documentation. Issue 28548 would also benefit if the HTTP 0.9 code was removed. The presence of the HTTP 0.9 code means a suboptimal response is sent in some

[issue10721] Remove HTTP 0.9 server support

Martin Panter added the comment: There are a few small benefits from removing it, but I am not too fussed if we decide to leave it. * If we keep it, should we fix it so that it doesn’t deadlock? Otherwise, we carry around buggy and untested code that claims to be a HTTP 0.9 server but isn’t.

Raymond Hettinger added the comment: There is so very little code in support of HTTP/0.9 that I don't think we get any benefit from removing it. So why bother with the churn? It is cleaner to just leave it place. -- nosy: +rhettinger ___ Python

[issue10721] Remove HTTP 0.9 server support

[issue10721] Remove HTTP 0.9 server support

Martin Panter added the comment: Does this need any deprecation cycle, or can we just remove everything immediately in 3.6? I suspect that the HTTP 0.9 support never properly worked, but I don’t have enough info to be sure. Wouldn’t a HTTP 0.9 request send b"GET \r\n" with a single line, and

[issue10721] Remove HTTP 0.9 server support

New submission from Antoine Pitrou pit...@free.fr: http.server has support for old-style HTTP 0.9 requests (command path without a version string). This issue proposes to remove this support, since there are probably no clients around which still issue such requests. See issue10711 for the

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment: The question really is whether we want or want not to support RFC 1945 (i.e HTTP/1.0). If we want to support it, we also must comply to section 3.1, which says The version of an HTTP message is indicated by an HTTP-Version field in the

[issue10721] Remove HTTP 0.9 server support

Senthil Kumaran orsent...@gmail.com added the comment: If a client sends a request without specifying the version, GET /, then the Python server should behave like other common servers are behaving, namely support rfc 1945 for HTTP 1.0 spec and return the response without headers. Removing
