Hi,
I am currently debugging some problems in my application using the
THttpServer/THttpConnection components regarding the support for HEAD
requests. As far as I understand the specs no response body should be
returned for HEAD but it seems that THttpConnection does send response
bodies in procedure ProcessPost() in case of 400/404/etc. answers. This
probably confuses the client.
Do you think it is meaningful to update the AnswerXXX() procedures like the
following diff example:
-procedure THttpConnection.Answer404;
+procedure THttpConnection.Answer404(SendType : THttpSendType = httpSendDoc);
var
Body : String;
begin
@@ -3223,7 +3223,8 @@
GetKeepAliveHdrLines +
#13#10);
FAnswerStatus := 404; { V7.19 }
- SendStr(Body);
+ if SendType <> httpSendHead then
+ SendStr(Body);
end;
and call Answer404(httpSendHead) within ProcessHead()?
Regards,
Tobias
