Class BasicLineParser

java.lang.Object
org.apache.http.message.BasicLineParser
All Implemented Interfaces:
LineParser
public class BasicLineParser
extends Object
implements LineParser
Basic parser for lines in the head section of an HTTP message. There are individual methods for parsing a request line, a status line, or a header line. The lines to parse are passed in memory, the parser does not depend on any specific IO mechanism. Instances of this class are stateless and thread-safe. Derived classes MUST maintain these properties.

Note: This class was created by refactoring parsing code located in various other classes. The author tags from those other classes have been replicated here, although the association with the parsing code taken from there has not been traced.
