useHTTP10

[OleksandrDiachenko]

Can you add .useHTTP10 to the library in the future?

Hi @OleksandrDiachenko

Even it's simple to modify to use HTTP1.0 as an option, can you specify your use-case as well as test by just changing a line in the library from

AsyncHTTPRequest_Generic/src/AsyncHTTPRequest_Impl_Generic.h

Line 1330 in 8b03589

_request->write(" HTTP/1.1\r\n");

to

  _request->write(" HTTP/1.0\r\n");

The benefits of HTTP/1.1

• provides for persistent connections, which implies that many responses and requests can be sent over the same HTTP connection.
• supports chunk transfers
• too many more new features. Check RFC2616 section-19.6.1

But beware that the responses, if using HTTP/1.0, really depend on the new HTTP/1.1 servers

Check

1. How does a HTTP 1.1 server respond to a HTTP 1.0 request?
2. RFC2616 section-19.6.1

You have to fully test and report everything is OK there as I have no time to deal with this now. If OK then, I'll move forward to add the HTTP/1.0 option.
