Before we had HTTP::HeaderMap (which preserves multiple headers with the
same name), we collected multiple "Set-Cookie" headers and bundled them
together as a JSON array.
This was a huge hack, and now we can stop doing that, since LibWeb gets
access to the full set of headers now.
Instead of using a HashMap<ByteString, ByteString, CaseInsensitive...>
everywhere, we now encapsulate this in a class.
Even better, the new class also allows keeping track of multiple headers
with the same name! This will make it possible for HTTP responses to
actually retain all their headers on the perilous journey from
RequestServer to LibWeb.
LibWeb will need to use unbuffered requests to support server-sent
events. Connection for such events remain open and the remote end sends
data as HTTP bodies at its leisure. The browser needs to be able to
handle this data as it arrives, as the request essentially never
finishes.
To support this, this make Protocol::Request operate in one of two
modes: buffered or unbuffered. The existing mechanism for setting up a
buffered request was a bit awkward; you had to set specific callbacks,
but be sure not to set some others, and then set a flag. The new
mechanism is to set the mode and the callbacks that the mode needs in
one API.
This URL library ends up being a relatively fundamental base library of
the system, as LibCore depends on LibURL.
This change has two main benefits:
* Moving AK back more towards being an agnostic library that can
be used between the kernel and userspace. URL has never really fit
that description - and is not used in the kernel.
* URL _should_ depend on LibUnicode, as it needs punnycode support.
However, it's not really possible to do this inside of AK as it can't
depend on any external library. This change brings us a little closer
to being able to do that, but unfortunately we aren't there quite
yet, as the code generators depend on LibCore.
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).
This commit is auto-generated:
$ xs=$(ack -l \bDeprecatedString\b\|deprecated_string AK Userland \
Meta Ports Ladybird Tests Kernel)
$ perl -pie 's/\bDeprecatedString\b/ByteString/g;
s/deprecated_string/byte_string/g' $xs
$ clang-format --style=file -i \
$(git diff --name-only | grep \.cpp\|\.h)
$ gn format $(git ls-files '*.gn' '*.gni')
This will help a lot with developing chromes for different UI frameworks
where we can see which helper classes and processes are really using Qt
vs just using it to get at helper data.
As a bonus, remove Qt dependency from WebDriver.
