Hi devs, I would like to know whether http CONNECT method is supported in httpcore. I went through the source of httpcore and httpcore-nio. But I was unable to find out a responsible code for this.
CONNECT method is used in tunneling (which I am interested in). I have studied about tunneling and I have understood the following facts (which I believe is correct). To create a tunnel, our http request should contain the following header, CONNECT home.site.com:443 HTTP/1.0 User-agent: Mozilla/4.0 <<< empty line >>> Then the proxy server tries to create a connection to the server:port mentioned in the request. If it succeeds, following response is sent to the client. HTTP/1.0 200 Connection established Proxy-agent: My-Proxy/1.1 <<< empty line >>> After that, proxy server starts sending data via the tunnel (abstract idea). Can somebody please tell me whether tunneling is supported or direct me to the relevant code segment to look at. Thanks in advance. Amila.
