| Issue 28: | TouchConnection needs NSURLConnection replacement | |
| 1 person starred this issue and may be notified of changes. | Back to list |
NSURLConnection is handy - but widely considered to be leaky and buggy. Considering writing an open source replacement that ties into the rest of TouchConnection. Features: • iPhone or Mac OS • Simple API. Close to NSURLConnection but not too close. • Uses standard NSURLRequest/Response. Let's no reinvent the wheel • More control of caching. By default no caching? But hooks to add in? • Write data to file by default or to a single NSData block. No need to append data chunks to get the body data. • Proxy support (via SC.framework). • Optional https support • Optional auth (digest & basic). Implementation: • Some of the work has already been done with TouchHTTPD - wrapping of CFHTTP* in Cocoa. Can take that code - extend it and turn into some of what we need.

Doesn't Apple accept patches for NSURLConnection?

Patches? To what? The code isn't available.
