Using `time::Tm` directly in HTTP header fields requires special handling to parse and format
the header values., this stops us from using the header macros. By wrapping `time::Time` in a
`HttpDate`, we can use the `FromStr` and `Display` traits of `HttpDate` like for most other values.
BREAKING_CHANGE: All code using one of the `Date`, `Expires`, `If-Modified-Since`,
`If-Unmodified-Since`, `Last-Modified` header fields needs to wrap `time::Tm`
with `HttpDate`. Removed `FromStr` trait of `Date`, `If-Modified-Sice` and `If-Unmodified-Sice`,
implementing the trait here is inconsistent with other headers.
It is no longer required, as we can use `<H as Header>::header_name()`.
BREAKING CHANGE: Implementations of Header will need to adjust the
header_name method. It no longer takes any arguments.
Currently headers are exported at many places. For example you can access
`Transfer-Encoding` header at `header`, `header::common` and
`header::common::transfer_encoding`. Per discussion on IRC with
@seanmonstar and @reem, all contents of headers will be exposed at `header`
directly. Parsing utilities will be exposed at `header::parsing`. Header
macros can now be used from other crates.
This breaks much code using headers. It should use everything it needs
directly from `header::`, encodings are exposed at `header::Encoding::`,
connection options are exposed at `header::ConnectionOption`.
- Some stray deriving -> derive changes
- use::{mod} -> use::{self}
- fmt.write -> fmt.write_str
This does not catch the last case of fmt.write_str in the
Show impl of a Header Item. This will need to be changed
separately.
This adds a dependency on the time crate found in rust-lang/time
and fixes a field rename from tm_gmtoff to tm_utcoff.
add time dependency
tm_gmtoff has been renamed to tm_utcoff
