I'm not sure what you mean by requirement. It may not be documented, but Darwin does behave this way. > Chances are that the implementation is such that there are some pre-defined > values which can be used/replaced for keys, but other ones will take the case > of whatever you put in them. Perhaps. That's what I'd like to enquire about. Is making SCLF compatible with the output in my example sufficient, or are there other factors to consider? > I also don't think it makes sense to capitalise everything because in most > cases it will have no effect, but is wasted computation. Darwin doesn't capitalise everything, as I've shown, so SCLF shouldn't either. > So in other words, don't pass lowercase values into the x.httpMethod if you > don't want it. I'm sorry, I don't understand this. x.httpMethod accepts an arbitrary String - you can write `x.httpMethod = frobnicate` if you want. Darwin seems to treat some values e.g. "get" specially though. This isn't documented, but SCLF should behave the same because there's code out there that does `x.httpMethod = "get"`, `y.httpMethod = "GET", compares the URLRequests and expects them to be equal. -- Ian Partridge _______________________________________________ swift-corelibs-dev mailing list swift-corelibs-dev@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-corelibs-dev
