Java UrlConnection HTTP 1.0

I am trying to download a file from my Java application. But because UrlConnection uses HTTP 1.1 protocol i get a Tranfer Encoding: chunked response in which case i can not find out file size(content-length is not set).

HTTP conformance test suite

Are there any good HTTP conformance test suites? I need to test some existing code for the standard compliance and do not want to reinvent the wheel and bump into various corner cases.

CloudFront caching - How to ensure CF refreshes from S3 origin server after expiry?

I'm putting assets to S3 with expiry headers, which successfully get passed through to CloudFront distributions. However, requests after the expiry don't result in CloudFront requesting a fresh file from the origin server. I am also finding that query string version tokens don't force a fresh asset, and I don't want to use full, file na...

I'm running into some HTTP caching issues, caused by some downstream apps not putting Cache-Control headers on time-sensitive data. I need to make the case that this is a broken situation. Is there any succinct statement available online about permissible or common response-handling behaviors by caches and agents when the Cache-Control ...

I am looking to download a file from a http url to a local file. The file is large enough that I want to download it and save it chunks rather than read() and write() the whole file as a single giant string. The interface of urllib.urlretrieve is essentially what I want. However, I cannot see a way to set request headers when downloadin...

Does Java have a complete enum for HTTP response codes?

I'm wondering if there is an enum type in some standard Java class library that defines symbolic constants for all of the valid HTTP response codes. It should support conversion to/from the corresponding integer values. I'm debugging some Java code that uses javax.ws.rs.core.Response.Status. It works, but it only defines about half of t...

Framework for Java RPC server

I'm planning on writing an RPC server in Java. The server needs to accept incoming RPCs - probably over HTTP - and answer them. Fairly basic stuff. Support for 'long polling' or 'hanging' RPCs isn't necessary, so a thread-per-request model ought to be perfectly adequate. If I were writing this in Python, I would probably use a framework...
