Hi, I am Samit Jain, currently a Masters student in Computer Science at Columbia University. The main goal of my project I am working on (as part of the Google Summer of Code program) is to implement RFC2965 Cookie Specification and integrate it into HttpClient 3.0. The project has been progressing very well. Some of the discussion about the project can be found at httpclient-dev apache mailing list. I am developing the project against the latest code base of HttpClient 3.0. I am also maintaining a parallel code base at sourceforge - https://sourceforge.net/projects/httpc-cookie2/.
1. Design and Development Plan: This was completed earlier this month. After reviewing the RFC 2965, I spent some time understanding the differences between RFC 2965 and RFC 2109 and how the former offers more flexible cookie handling. I also did some research into existing implementations of RFC 2965. I came up with a design and development plan for my project, which was approved by other developers in the group. I started development by enumerating the various test cases for this module and writing corresponding unit tests in JUnit. I then proceeded to implement the cookie management policy. 2. Cookie Management in accordance with RFC 2965: This section covers different parts of implementation. a. Cookie Parsing: Implementation is complete. Currently I am testing it and fixing a few bugs. b. Cookie Validation: Implementation is complete. Currently I am testing it and fixing a few bugs. c. Cookie Matching: Unit tests written. d. Cookie Formatting: Not started. 3. Integration with HttpClient 3.0: This module will be integrated into HttpClient once it is developed and tested independently. 4. Integration tests : These will be written after integration. It is a great experience to be working on an open source project with other developers. This project has enhanced my interested into open source development and I look forward to contributing to other open source projects in the future.
