nghttp2 - HTTP/2.0 C Library
============================
2012-01-26 17:38:35 +01:00
2013-07-12 17:19:03 +02:00
This is an experimental implementation of Hypertext Transfer Protocol
version 2.0.

Development Status
------------------
2012-03-26 16:46:02 +02:00
2013-07-16 17:08:05 +02:00
We started to implement HTTP-defat-04/2.0
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpbis-http2-04) based on
spdylay code base.

The following features are not implemented:
2013-07-19 18:34:40 +02:00
* Header continuation
* PRIORITY frame handling
* PUSH_PROMISE and server-push in general
2013-07-16 17:08:05 +02:00
* Client connection header: spdycat and spdyd do not send/handle
client connection header.
* ALPN: spdycat and spdyd use openssl without ALPN support and still
uses NPN to negotiate HTTP-draft-04/2.0.
2013-07-19 18:34:40 +02:00
With those missing parts, the library is not still inter-operable
2013-07-16 17:08:05 +02:00
right now.
The spdycat and spdyd are (the names are now odd for HTTP/2.0) working
now assuming the above limitation. You can see the HTTP/2.0 frames
back and forth and connection-level and stream level flow controls.
