But as for improvements it's supposed to bring: - streaming upload data - multiple headers of the same name - better factoring of lowlevel HTTP vs highlevel request handling, to allow other transports (e.g. CGI) to be more easily plugged in - IResource interface improvements from Nevow - more versatile outgoing data streaming API. - header parsing correctness - full HTTP1.1 support - output filters (e.g. HTTP range support done in a generic fashion) - I dunno, probably some more stuff I forgot at the moment.
It's not done enough yet for me to recommend using it in production,
web2 sounds like it will be fabulous. I hope you don't mind me asking for a bit more advice-- suppose I do need to fix the streaming file upload problem* right away (or at least fairly soon). Do I use nevow instead of web? Do I use web2 from svn? What other options do I have before me? Which of these paths will allow me to bring my webserver back to web2 with the least resistence when web2 is released? -- thanks, Lenny G * btw, isn't this a security hole for any webserver running off of twisted-web.resource.Resource -based websites -- if a client does a post with multipart/form-data and then just streams data endlessly, the server process mushrooms to fill all available memory and swap? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
