As RFC 2616 says we should, assume that servers will provide a persistent
connection by default.
> A significant difference between HTTP/1.1 and earlier versions of
> HTTP is that persistent connections are the default behavior of any
> HTTP connection. That is, unless otherwise indicated, the client
> SHOULD assume that the server will maintain a persistent connection,
> even after error responses from the server.
> HTTP/1.1 applications that do not support persistent connections MUST
> include the "close" connection option in every message.
Fixes#2436.
`path.exists*` functions show a deprecation warning and call functions
from `fs`. They should be removed later.
test: fix references to `path.exists*` in tests
test fs: add test for `fs.exists` and `fs.existsSync`
doc: reflect moving `path.exists*` to `fs`
uncaughtException handlers installed by the user override the default one that
the cluster module installs, the one that kills off the master process.
Fixes#2556.
Passing a non-buffer or non-string argument to Socket.prototype.write triggered
an assert:
Assertion failed: (Buffer::HasInstance(args[0])), function Write,
file ../src/stream_wrap.cc, line 289.
Fixes#2532.
With Upgrade or CONNECT request, http.ClientRequest emits 'close' event
after its socket is closed. However, after receiving a response, the socket
is not under management by the request.
http.ClientRequest should detach the socket before 'upgrade'/'connect'
event is emitted to pass the socket to a user. After that, it should
emit 'close' event immediately without waiting for closing of the socket.
Fixes#2510.
Parent and child isolates can now pass arbitrary binary messages between each
other. The messages are sent and received through a thread-safe queue that
wakes up the event loop of the receiving thread.
- Save StringPtr if the header hasn't been completely received yet after one
packet.
- Add one to num_fields and num_values. They were actually one less than the
number of fields and values.
- Remove always_inline makes debugging difficult, and has negligible
performance benefits.
