This should be the choice of the application to "retry" on exception, otherwise let the framework handle this in the lower part.
Better handling of response termination (alias commit)
Added the notion of "status_committed"
Renamed WGI_RESPONSE_BUFFER as WGI_RESPONSE to avoid confusion
Removed EWF_HEADER and removed related caller from WGI implementation,
now this is only part of WSF library
Added wgi_version, wgi_implementation and wgi_connector to the WGI_REQUEST interface
to give more information to the user
Added back WGI_CONNECTOR to WGI specification, mainly because of `{WGI_REQUEST}.wgi_connector'
simplified WGI_CONNECTOR to contain for now only `name' and `version'
if the implementation of connector inherit from WGI_CONNECTOR (recommended)
this might gives more access to the user using a reverse assignment for specific needs
(but this usage is not recommended due to portability issue on other connector)
Removed useless connector.ecf since now EWF/WGI library provides the helper classes
Renamed any *_APPLICATION as *_SERVICE
mainly because those components
such as WSF_APPLICATION, renamed as WSF_SERVICE
are not always the main application entry, and "service" describe them better
Minor implementation change in WSF_REQUEST
Cosmetics
Quite useful when launching using port=0 to use a random free port.
This is great for testing, this way we can run many tests in the same time without any port blocking.
- Adopted the ITERATION_CURSOR [WGI_VALUE] design for *_parameters and similar functions
- renamed parameter as item
- provided helper function to handle "string" value parameters
Experimental for now.
renamed ENVIRONMENT_NAMES into META_NAMES
better usage of READABLE_STRING_GENERAL, and other strings
abstract RESPONSE_BUFFER in implementation of EWSGI
for the implementation, inheriting from deferred specification (more to come later)
Re-adapt the Spec-compliant solution (instead of Lib-compliant solution).
Thus no more 100% deferred interface.
Rename EWSGI_RESPONSE into EWSGI_RESPONSE_BUFFER
Added in extra/response-as-result/ an copy/paste from the implementation of Paul's proposal (not up to date with Paul's spec). But this is mainly for information and tests.
Removed part of the ewsgi/specification interfaces ... to be able to test EWSGI compliant library against the pure specification (experimental).
Renamed most of the GW_... into EWSGI_...
Renamed EWSGI_RESPONSE as EWSGI_RESPONSE_STREAM to avoid confusion with EWSGI_RESPONSE as stated in Paul's proposal
Added default "configuration" (for nino and cgi) to be independant of the connector (at compilation time)
Added example implementing Paul's proposal on top of EWSGI
So this is really more flexible this way, and much easier to write application supporting CGI, FCGI, Nino and so on .. as demonstrated in hello_world
This is a first version, more will come later, mainly migrating from Eiffel Web Reloaded to this Eiffel Web Framework project.
