<li>Fix issue with WSGIHTTPException inadvertently generating unicode body

and failing to encode it</li>

<li>WWW-Authenticate response header is accessible as

<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">response.www_authenticate</span></tt></li>

<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">response.www_authenticate</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">request.authorization</span></tt> hold None

or tuple <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">(auth_method,</span> <span class="pre">params)</span></tt> where <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">params</span></tt> is a dictionary

(or a string when <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">auth_method</span></tt> is not one of known auth schemes

and for Authenticate: Basic ...)</li>

<li>Don’t share response headers when getting a response like <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">resp</span> <span class="pre">=</span>

<span class="pre">req.get_response(some_app)</span></tt>; this can avoid some funny errors with

modifying headers and reusing Response objects.</li>

<li>Add <cite>overwrite</cite> argument to <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">Response.set_cookie()</span></tt> that make the

new value overwrite the previously set. <cite>False</cite> by default.</li>

<li>Add <cite>strict</cite> argument to <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">Response.unset_cookie()</span></tt> that controls

if an exception should be raised in case there are no cookies to unset.

100

<cite>True</cite> by default.</li>

101

102

<li>Make sure that 304 Not Modified responses generated by

103

<tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">Response.conditional_response_app()</span></tt> exclude Content-{Length/Type}

104

headers</li>

105

<li>Fix <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Response.copy()</span></tt> not being an independent copy</li>

106

<li>When the requested range is not satisfiable, return a 416 error

107

(was returning entire body)</li>

108

<li>Truncate response for range requests that go beyond the end of body

109

(was treating as invalid).</li>

<li>Moved repository from svn location to

<a class="reference" href="http://bitbucket.org/ianb/webob/">http://bitbucket.org/ianb/webob/</a></li>

122

<a class="reference external" href="http://bitbucket.org/ianb/webob/">http://bitbucket.org/ianb/webob/</a></li>

123

<li>Arguments to <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">Accept.best_match()</span></tt> must be specific types,

124

not wildcards. The server should know a list of specic types it can

125

offer and use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">best_match</span></tt> to select a specific one.</li>

126

164

<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">__setattr__</span></tt>. (chrism)</li>

127

165

<li>Added response attribute <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">response.content_disposition</span></tt> for its

128

166

associated header.</li>

129

<li>Changed how <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">charset</span></tt> is determined on <a title="webob.Request" class="reference" href="modules/webob.html#webob.Request"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.Request</span></tt></a>

167

<li>Changed how <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">charset</span></tt> is determined on <a title="webob.Request" class="reference external" href="modules/webob.html#webob.Request"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.Request</span></tt></a>

130

168

objects. Now the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">charset</span></tt> parameter is read on the Content-Type

131

169

header, if it is present. Otherwise a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">default_charset</span></tt> parameter

132

170

is read, or the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">charset</span></tt> argument to the Request constructor.

133

This is more similar to how <a title="webob.Response" class="reference" href="modules/webob.html#webob.Response"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.Response</span></tt></a> handles the

This is more similar to how <a title="webob.Response" class="reference external" href="modules/webob.html#webob.Response"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.Response</span></tt></a> handles the

134

172

charset.</li>

135

173

<li>Made the case of the Content-Type header consistent (note: this

136

174

might break some doctests).</li>

156

194

<li>When a Location header is not absolute in a Response, it will be

157

195

made absolute when the Response is called as a WSGI application.

158

196

This makes the response less bound to a specific request.</li>

159

<li>Added <a title="" class="reference" href="modules/dec.html#module-webob.dec"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.dec</span></tt></a>, a decorator for making WSGI applications

197

<li>Added <a title="" class="reference external" href="modules/dec.html#module-webob.dec"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.dec</span></tt></a>, a decorator for making WSGI applications

raise an exception.</li>

unnecessarily when rereading the body.</li>

176

214

largely-unused option allowed a Request object to be instantiated

177

215

with a dynamic underlying environ. Since it wasn’t used much, and

178

216

might have been ill-advised from the beginning, and affected

191

229

<li>Fix a potential memory leak with HEAD requests and 304 responses.</li>

192

<li>Make <a title="webob.html_escape" class="reference" href="modules/webob.html#webob.html_escape"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.html_escape()</span></tt></a> respect the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.__html__()</span></tt> magic

195

233

<li>Handle unicode values for <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">resp.location</span></tt>.</li>

196

234

<li>Allow arbitrary keyword arguments to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">exc.HTTP*</span></tt> (the same

197

keywords you can send to <a title="webob.Response" class="reference" href="modules/webob.html#webob.Response"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.Response</span></tt></a>).</li>

235

keywords you can send to <a title="webob.Response" class="reference external" href="modules/webob.html#webob.Response"><tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.Response</span></tt></a>).</li>

198

236

<li>Allow setting <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.Response.cache_expires()</span></tt> (usually it is

199

237

called as a method). This is primarily to allow

<li>Add more arguments to <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">Request.remove_conditional_headers()</span></tt>

dashes.</li>

284

<tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">webob.Request.copy_body()</span></tt>, which make it easier to share a
