Class Method Details

.parse(string_of_headers_from_multiple_responses_in_sequence) ⇒ Object

Parses a string with lines delimited with CRLF into an Array of SingleResponseHeaders objects. libCURL supplies us multiple responses in sequence, so if we encounter multiple redirect or operate through a proxy - that adds ConnectionEstablished status at the beginning of the response - we need to account for parsing multiple response headres and potentially preserving them.

Parameters:

  • the (String) —

    string of headers, with responses delimited by empty lines. All lines must end with CRLF
