#ifndef _LLCORE_HTTP_COMMON_H_
#define _LLCORE_HTTP_COMMON_H_
/// @package LLCore::HTTP
///
/// This library implements a high-level, Indra-code-free client interface to
/// HTTP services based on actual patterns found in the viewer and simulator.
/// Interfaces are similar to those supplied by the legacy classes
/// LLCurlRequest and LLHTTPClient. To that is added a policy scheme that
/// allows an application to specify connection behaviors: limits on
/// connections, HTTP keepalive, HTTP pipelining, retry-on-error limits, etc.
///
/// Features of the library include:
/// - Single, private working thread where all transport and processing occurs.
/// - Support for multiple consumers running in multiple threads.
/// - Scatter/gather (a.k.a. buffer array) model for bulk data movement.
/// - Reference counting used for many object instance lifetimes.
/// - Minimal data sharing across threads for correctness and low latency.
///
/// The public interface is declared in a few key header files:
/// - "llcorehttp/bufferarray.h"
/// - "llcorehttp/httpcommon.h"
/// - "llcorehttp/httphandler.h"
/// - "llcorehttp/httpheaders.h"
/// - "llcorehttp/httpoptions.h"
/// - "llcorehttp/httprequest.h"
/// - "llcorehttp/httpresponse.h"
///
/// The library is still under early development and particular users
/// may need access to internal implementation details that are found
/// in the _*.h header files. But this is a crutch to be avoided if at
/// all possible and probably indicates some interface work is neeeded.
///
/// Using the library is fairly easy. Global setup needs a few
/// steps:
///
/// - libcurl initialization with thread-safely callbacks for c-ares
/// DNS lookups.
/// - HttpRequest::createService() called to instantiate singletons
/// and support objects.
///
/// An HTTP consumer in an application, and an application may have many
/// consumers, does a few things:
///
/// - Instantiate and retain an object based on HttpRequest. This
/// object becomes the portal into runtime services for the consumer.
/// - Derive or mixin the HttpHandler class if you want notification
/// when requests succeed or fail. This object's onCompleted()
/// method is invoked and an instance can be shared across
/// requests.
///
/// Issuing a request is straightforward:
/// - Construct a suitable URL.
/// - Configure HTTP options for the request. (optional)
/// - Build a list of additional headers. (optional)
/// - Invoke one of the requestXXXX() methods (requestGetByteRange,
/// requestPost, etc.) on the HttpRequest instance supplying the
/// above along with a policy class, a priority and an optional
/// pointer to an HttpHandler instance. Work is then queued to
/// the worker thread and occurs asynchronously.
/// - Periodically invoke the update() method on the HttpRequest
/// instance which performs completion notification to HttpHandler
/// objects.
/// - Do completion processing in your onCompletion() method.
///
/// Code fragments:
/// <TBD>
///
