By default, if a URI handler changes the http session context,
the webserver internally clears the older context after the handler
returns. However, if applications want to change this behavior and
manage the allocation/de-allocation/freeing themselves and let the
server handle only the "socket close" case, this commit provides such
an option.
* http_sess_set_*_override APIs are now the only ones available to set custom recv/send/pending functions
* Fixed side effects to using http_sess_set/get_context inside URI handlers
Changes:
- renamed `httpd_free_sess_ctx_fn_t` to `httpd_free_ctx_fn_t`
- added a `httpd_handle_t` argument to `httpd_send_func_t` and `httpd_recv_func_t`
- internal function `httpd_sess_get()` is no longer static, as it's used in other
files besides httpd_sess.c
Bug fixes:
- removed a trailing semicolon from `HTTPD_DEFAULT_CONFIG()`
- fixed issue with failed `select()`, now it automatically closes invalid sockets
instead of shutting down the entire server
New features:
- `httpd_resp_send()` and `httpd_resp_send_chunk()` now accept -1 as length to use
`strlen()` internally
- added `httpd_sess_set_ctx()` to accompany `httpd_sess_get_ctx()`
- added a "transport context" to the session structure (next to user context)
- added `httpd_sess_{get,set}_transport_ctx()` to work with this transport context
- added "global user context" and "global transport context" stored in the server
config (and then the handle); supports a user-provided free_fn
- added a "pending func" to e.g. check for data in the transport layer receive
buffer
- added functions `httpd_set_sess_{send,recv,pending}_override()` that target
a session by ID (i.e. not using a request object)
- added `httpd_set_pending_override()`
- added a "open_fn" and "close_fn" - functions called when creating and closing
a session. These may be used to set up transport layer encryption or some other
session-wide feature
