Subject: Preserving case in HTTP headers
Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2012 08:16:58 +0200
To: bug-HTTP-Tiny [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Mario Ivancic <mario.ivancic [...] gmail.com>
Hello, I'm using HTTP-Tiny-0.022 and ActiveState Perl 5.8.7 on Windows XP. I have web app that I need to talk to using HTTP POST method. The app use some custom HTTP headers that are not case insensitive so it's crucial to preserve case of headers, at least non-standard ones. Quick hack is to change definition of list HeaderCase from 'my %HeaderCase = (..)' to 'our %HeaderCase = (..)' and then add more headers to it like this: $HTTP::Tiny::Handle:: HeaderCase{'some-header'} = 'SoMe-HeadeR'; -- Best regards, Mario.

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble. However, it looks like the web app you're connecting to is not actually HTTP 1.1 compliant. See http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec4.html#sec4.2 where field names are defined as case insensitive. HTTP::Tiny only does HTTP 1.1 -- if you need custom handling, then I recommend a different HTTP client. Regards, David
