This part of the spec is too laconic. Several questions arise and MUST be answered:
1. WHY chunked encoding?
2. HOW chunked encoding?
3. WHY chunk-extensions?
4. WHICH chunk-extensions?
5. WHY trailer?
6. WHICH trailer lines?
Cnf. e.g. httpd-2.2.8/modules/http/chunk_filter.c :
if (eos && !f->ctx) {
/* XXX: (2) trailers ... does not yet exist */
e = apr_bucket_immortal_create(ASCII_ZERO ASCII_CRLF
/* <trailers> */
ASCII_CRLF, 5, c->bucket_alloc);
APR_BUCKET_INSERT_BEFORE(eos, e);
}
<trailers> obviously are not sent.
Another question:
chunk-size: MUST fit a UINT
xor MUST fit a ULONG
or MAY exceed a ULONGLONG and the variable MUST be a FLOAT
