This page is to be used as a scratch pad for possible Zend_Http_* classes related ideas and changes.
General Architecture
- Share Zend_Http_Response with Zend_Http_Server
- Create a Zend_Http_Message abstract class
- Two inheriting classes:
- Zend_Http_Request (generated by the client, parsed by the server)
- Zend_Http_Response (generated by the server, parsed by the client)
- On the same note: Create a standalone Zend_Http_Request class which can be used to send single requests (through an adapter) and a Zend_Http_Client which will be used as a larger, more feature rich HTTP client supporting features like redirection handling, cookie stickiness, digest authentication, consecutive requests with the same features (Accept headers etc.) etc.
Adapters
- Finish the Curl adapter (??)
- Create Zend_Http_Client_Adapter_PSocket - persistent sockets adapter (??)
Additional Features
- Digest authentication support (see http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-1114)
- SSL certificates and stream contexts support (see http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-1004)
