[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] Re: question on whitespace in text negotiationsThey are significant. I will make the text say it explicitly in 3.10.4: The initiator sends the target a set of key=value or key=list pairs encoded in UTF-8 Unicode. All the text keys and text values specified in this document are to be presented and interpreted in the case they appear in this document (they are case sensitive). White space in key and values is significant. The key and value are separated by a '=' (0x3d) delimiter. Every key=value pair (including the last or only pair) MUST be followed by at least one null (0x00) delimiter. A list is a set of values separated by comma (0x2c).

I have another one for you: Sections 2.2.4 and 3.10.4 describe the format of text requests/responses, but doesn't address whether whitespace is significant or should be thrown away. For example, is "_MaxConnections_=_2" (where _ represents a space) valid or invalid? I get the feeling that whitespace is significant, but it would be nice if the spec explicitly said so. Thanks...
