## Detailed Description

Represents HTTP response message.

This derivation of the `HttpMessage` class is specialized to represent HTTP responses. This class provides two constructors for creating an inbound and outbound response instance respectively. This class is associated with an instance of the `HttpResponseContext`, which is used to provide response specific values, such as HTTP status and headers.

The derivations of this class provide specializations and specify the HTTP versions and headers supported/required in the specific use cases. For example, the `HttpResponseJson` class derives from the `HttpResponse` and it requires that response includes a body in the JSON format.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## ◆ HttpResponse() [1/2]

isc::http::HttpResponse::HttpResponse | ( |  | ) |
| explicit

Constructor for the inbound HTTP response.

Definition at line 49 of file response.cc.

References isc::http::HttpMessage::HttpMessage(), context_, and isc::http::HttpMessage::INBOUND.

Referenced by isc::http::HttpResponseJson::HttpResponseJson(), and isc::http::HttpResponseJson::HttpResponseJson().

Here is the call graph for this function:

## ◆ HttpResponse() [2/2]

isc::http::HttpResponse::HttpResponse | ( | const HttpVersion & | version,
|  | const HttpStatusCode & | status_code,
|  | const CallSetGenericBody & | generic_body = CallSetGenericBody::yes() )
| explicit

Constructor for outbound HTTP response.

Creates basic instance of the object. It sets the HTTP version and the status code to be included in the response.

Parameters

  version | HTTP version.
  status_code | HTTP status code.
  generic_body | Indicates if the constructor should call `setGenericBody` to create a generic content for the given status code. This should be set to "no" when the constructor is called by the derived class which provides its own implementation of the `setGenericBody` method.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ context()

const HttpResponseContextPtr & isc::http::HttpResponse::context | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Returns pointer to the HttpResponseContext.

The context holds intermediate data for creating a response. The response parser stores parsed raw data in the context. When parsing is finished, the data are validated and committed into the `HttpResponse`.

Returns
  Pointer to the underlying HttpResponseContext.

Definition at line 129 of file response.h.

References context_.

## ◆ create()

void isc::http::HttpResponse::create | ( |  | ) |
| virtual

Commits information held in the context into the response.

This function reads HTTP version, status code and headers from the context and validates their values. For the outbound messages, it automatically appends Content-Length and Date headers to the response. The Content-Length is set to the body size. The Date is set to the current date and time.

Implements isc::http::HttpMessage.

Here is the call graph for this function:

## ◆ finalize()

void isc::http::HttpResponse::finalize | ( |  | ) |
| virtual

Completes creation of the HTTP response.

This method marks the response as finalized. The outbound response may now be sent over the TCP socket. The information from the inbound message may be read, including the response body.

Implements isc::http::HttpMessage.
