Summary: Need to add ability to disable chunked encoding or
support HTTP 1.0 response.
Product: Tomcat 7
Version: 7.0.5
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: critical
Priority: P2
Component: Connectors
AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
ReportedBy: gober...@msn.com
I use NIO HTTP Tomcat connector org.apache.coyote.Http11NioProtocol to
implement Comet streaming to browsers and mobile devices.
The application opens 'primary' persistent Comet connection to receive data
from the server. Server sends data to the client periodically.
Currently, the response always uses HTTP 1.1 type response with chunked
encoding.
There could be a legitimate reason to disable chunked encoding - use
"Connection: close" without "Content-Length" headers.
For example, if I use tomcat to implement EventType streaming with Chrome, it
does not like chunked encoding and fails to receive any data. Also, chunked
encoding increases network bandwidth.
One way to disable chunked encoding (and actually the one I would prefer) is to
force HTTP 1.0 response.
So my questions are:
1) is it possible to force HTTP 1.0 response
2) is it possible to use HTTP 1.1 response, but disable chunked encoding.
