Perlbal::XS::HTTPHeadeUser)Contributed Perl DocumenPerlbal::XS::HTTPHeaders(3)NAMEPerlbal::XS::HTTPHeaders - Perlbal extension for processing HTTP
headers.
SYNOPSIS
use HTTPHeaders;
my $hdr = Perlbal::XS::HTTPHeaders->new("GET / HTTP/1.0\r\nConnection: keep-alive\r\n\r\n");
if ($hdr->getMethod == M_GET()) {
print "GET: ", $hdr->getURI(), "\n";
print "Connection: ", $hdr->getHeader('Connection'), "\n";
}
DESCRIPTION
This module is used to read HTTP headers from a string and to parse
them into an internal storage format for easy access and modification.
You can also ask the module to reconstitute the headers into one big
string, useful if you're writing a proxy and need to read and write
headers while maintaining the ability to modify individual parts of the
whole.
The goal is to be fast. This is a lot faster than doing all of the
text processing in Perl directly, and a lot of the flexibility of Perl
is maintained by implementing the library in Perl and descending from
Perlbal::HTTPHeaders.
