Google App Engine Python WebApp framework supported self.error() codes.

Question

Hi!

I know we can return errors to requests by calling self.error(http_error_code_here). However, there are some error codes that don't seem to be supported. "Unsupported error code" comes out when I use error code 510.

I used http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes as a reference for the error codes I am using.

What http error codes are currently supported by the GAE Python WebApp Framework?

You'll find the supported status codes in

google_appengine/google/appengine/ext/webapp/__init__.py

around line 270.

__HTTP_STATUS_MESSAGES = {
  100: 'Continue',
  101: 'Switching Protocols',
  200: 'OK',
  201: 'Created',
  202: 'Accepted',
  203: 'Non-Authoritative Information',
  204: 'No Content',
  205: 'Reset Content',
  206: 'Partial Content',
