Roland Weber resolved HTTPCORE-107.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
I'm through with the changes. Now I'll have to hack up some contrib code to
make sure that things work as expected.
> tolerate SIP or other like-HTTP message formats

> Key: HTTPCORE-107
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-107
> Project: HttpComponents Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 4.0-alpha5
> Reporter: Roland Weber
> Assignee: Roland Weber
> Fix For: 4.0-alpha6

> The Session Initiation Protocol in RFC 3261 defines a message format which is
> structurally identical to HTTP/1.1
> (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3261#section-7). The only difference is that
> the protocol name used in the request and response lines is SIP instead of
> HTTP, and the version number is 2.0. HttpCore should be able to handle these
> messages, or others with alternative protocol names but identical syntactic
> structures. There are two parts of core affected:
> - HttpVersion currently stores only the version number, but uses a hard-coded
> protocol name HTTP
> - HTTP message parsing checks for a hard-coded protocol name HTTP (both core
> and NIO)
> Note that this is "tolerance for" and not "support of" SIP. SIP makes heavy
> use of intermediate 1xx responses, for which our HttpRequestExecutor and
> HttpService classes are not prepared. The rest of the core/main module,
> including message representation, connections, and the params and interceptor
> frameworks, could be used for SIP or other alternative protocols without
> further changes.
> This is a change of medium complexity which would significantly improve the
> flexibility of the HttpCore module.
