Say you want to punch out a header with a Set-Cookie, so you "ns_set put" into the "ns_conn outputheaders" in preparation for the eventual header return. Later though you follow that change to the outputheaders with a bunch of ns_writes. Starting with one looking like this:
ns_write "HTTP/1.0 200 OK
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: $content_type
pragma: no-cache
"
My question is whether AOLserver is smart enough to pause the ns_write at the right moment (say before MIME-Version: 1.0) and insert whatever was in outputheaders (like the Set-Cookie)? Is that the default behavior? This is what I was thinking it might do.
ns_write "HTTP/1.0 200 OK
[More headers from ns_conn outputheaders]
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: $content_type
pragma: no-cache
"
I did some basic RTFM, but couldn't find anything yet. I grep tcldev/*.htm for coverage on outputheaders but nothing. I swear I read about the behavior though, maybe phil's book.
I'm asking to confirm whether this behavior is true. Thanks for any clarification and pointers to RTFM!
