NAME
POE::Component::Client::HTTP::Request - an HTTP request class
VERSION
version 0.947
SYNOPSIS
# Used internally by POE::Component::Client::HTTP
DESCRIPTION
POE::Component::Client::HTTP::Request encapsulates the state of requests POE::Component::Client::HTTP requests throughout their life
cycles. There turns out to be a lot of state to manage.
CONSTRUCTOR
new NAMED_PARAMETERS
Create a POE::Component::Client::HTTP object to manage a request. The constructor takes several named parameters:
Request => HTTP_REQUEST
A POE::Component::Client::HTTP::Request object encapsulates a plain HTTP::Request. Required.
Factory => POE_COMPONENT_CLIENT_HTTP_REQUESTFACTORY
The request may create additional requests during its lifetime, for example when following redirects. The Factory parameter specifies
the POE::Component::Client::HTTP::RequestFactory that may be used to create them. Required.
Postback => RESPONSE_POSTBACK
POE::Component::Client::HTTP creates a postback that will be used to send responses to the requesting session. Required.
Progress => PROGRESS_POSTBACK
Sets the progress notification if the user has requested progress events. Optional.
Proxy
Sets the proxy used for this request, if requested by the user. Optional.
METHODS

return_response
Sends a response back to the user's session. Called by POE::Component::Client::HTTP when a complete response has arrived.
add_eof
Called by POE::Component::Client::HTTP to indicate EOF has arrived.
add_content PARSED_DATA
Called by POE::Component::Client::HTTP to add content data to an incrementally built response. If PARSED_DATA is an object, it is treated
like an HTTP::Headers object and its headers are assimilated into the response being built by the request. Otherwise the PARSED_DATA is
appended to the response's content.

Accessor to manipulate the request's timeout timer. Sets the request's timer if TIMER is specified, otherwise merely fetches the one
currently associated with the request.
create_timer TIMEOUT
Creates and sets a timer for this request. TIMEOUT is the number of seconds this request may live.
remove_timeout
Turn off the timer associated with this request, and discard it.
postback POSTBACK
Accessor to manipulate the postback associated with this request. Sets the postback if POSTBACK is defined, otherwise merely fetches it.
does_redirect SOMETHING
FIXME - Not sure what this accessor does.
check_redirect

been met. Initiate a redirect if all conditions are favorable.

wheel
An accessor to return the wheel associated with this request.
