/**
 * @defgroup http_driver Globus XIO HTTP Driver
 * This driver implements the HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1 protocols within
 * the Globus XIO framework. It may be used with the tcp driver for
 * the standard HTTP protocol stack, or may be combined with the gsi
 * driver for a HTTPS implementation.
 *
 * This implementation supports user-defined HTTP headers, persistent
 * connections, and chunked transfer encoding.
 */

/**
 * @defgroup http_driver_instance Opening/Closing
 * @ingroup http_driver
 *
 * An XIO handle with the http driver can be created with either 
 * @ref globus_xio_handle_create() or
 * @ref globus_xio_server_register_accept().
 *
 * If the handle is created with
 * @ref globus_xio_server_register_accept(), then an HTTP service handle
 * will be created when @ref globus_xio_register_open() is called. The XIO
 * application must call one of the functions in the @ref globus_xio_read()
 * family to receive the HTTP request metadata. This metadata will be returned
 * in the data descriptor associated with that first read: the application
 * should use the GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_GET_REQUEST descriptor cntl to extract
 * this metadata.
 *
 * If the handle is created with @ref globus_xio_handle_create(), then
 * an HTTP client handle will be created when
 * @ref globus_xio_register_open() is called. HTTP request headers, version and
 * method may be chosen by setting attributes.
 */

/**
 * @defgroup http_driver_io Reading/Writing
 * @ingroup http_driver
 *
 * The HTTP driver behaves similar to the underlying transport driver
 * with respect to reads and writes with the exception that metadata must
 * be passed to the handle via open attributes on the client side and will
 * be received as data descriptors as part of the first request read or
 * response read.
 */

/**
 * @defgroup http_driver_server Server
 * @ingroup http_driver
 *
 * The @ref globus_xio_server_create() causes a new transport-specific
 * listener socket to be created to handle new HTTP connections.
 * @ref globus_xio_server_register_accept() will accept a new
 * connection for processing. @ref globus_xio_server_register_close()
 * cleans up the internal resources associated with the http server
 * and calls close on the listener.
 *
 * Multiple HTTP requests may be read in sequence from an HTTP
 * server. After each request is processed and the response is sent (either by
 * writing the entire entity body as specified by the Content-Length header or 
 * by using the GLOBUS_XIO_HTTP_HANDLE_SET_END_OF_ENTITY handle cntl), the next
 * read will contain the metadata related to the next operation.
 * Only one request will be in process at once--the previous request must have
 * sent or received and EOF (whichever is applicable to the request type).
