<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
54
<p>The QHttpHeader class contains header information for HTTP.</p>
55
<p>In most cases you should use the more specialized derivatives of this class, <a href="qhttpresponseheader.html">QHttpResponseHeader</a> and <a href="qhttprequestheader.html">QHttpRequestHeader</a>, rather than directly using QHttpHeader.</p>
56
<p>QHttpHeader provides the HTTP header fields. A HTTP header field consists of a name followed by a colon, a single space, and the field value. (See RFC 1945.) Field names are case-insensitive. A typical header field looks like this:</p>
57
<pre> content-type: text/html</pre>
58
<p>In the API the header field name is called the "key" and the content is called the "value". You can get and set a header field's value by using its key with <a href="qhttpheader.html#value">value</a>() and <a href="qhttpheader.html#setValue">setValue</a>(), e.g.</p>
59
<pre> header.setValue("content-type", "text/html");
60
QString contentType = header.value("content-type");</pre>
61
<p>Some fields are so common that getters and setters are provided for them as a convenient alternative to using <a href="qhttpheader.html#value">value</a>() and <a href="qhttpheader.html#setValue">setValue</a>(), e.g. <a href="qhttpheader.html#contentLength">contentLength</a>() and <a href="qhttpheader.html#contentType">contentType</a>(), <a href="qhttpheader.html#setContentLength">setContentLength</a>() and <a href="qhttpheader.html#setContentType">setContentType</a>().</p>
62
<p>Each header key has a <i>single</i> value associated with it. If you set the value for a key which already exists the previous value will be discarded.</p>
63
<p>See also <a href="qhttprequestheader.html">QHttpRequestHeader</a> and <a href="qhttpresponseheader.html">QHttpResponseHeader</a>.</p>
