This allows RefPtr to be stored in a HashTable<RefPtr<T>> :^)
It's unfortunate about the const_casts. We'll need to fix HashMap::get
to play nice with non-const Traits<T>::PeekType at some point.
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
The DownloadFinished message from the server now includes a buffer ID
that can be mapped into the client program.
To avoid prematurely destroying the buffer, the server will hang on to
it until the client lets it know that they're all good. That's what the
ProtocolServer::DisownSharedBuffer message is about.
In the future it would be nice if the kernel had a mechanism to allow
passing ownership of a shared buffer along with an IPC message somehow.
This patch adds ProtocolServer, a server that handles network requests
on behalf of its clients. The first protocol implemented is HTTP.
The idea here is to use a plug-in architecture where any number of
protocols can be added and implemented without having to mess around
with each client program that wants to use the protocol.
A simple client API is provided through LibProtocol::Client. :^)
