methods. This allows you to easily dispatch a GET or a MKCOL request
against a resource with a single function call.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>A low-level interface for HTTP request
handling; allowing you to implement requests using arbitrary methods
and request headers, capture arbitrary response headers, and so
on.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Persistent connection support; neon groups a
set of requests to a server into a "session"; requests within that
session can use a persistent (also known as "keep-alive")
connection.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Modern HTTP authentication support: a complete
implementation of the new authentication standard, RFC2617, supporting
the Digest, Basic, and Negotiate protocols. Credentials are supplied
by an application-defined callback as appropriate.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Proxy server support; a session can be set to
use a proxy server. Authentication is supported for the Proxy as well
as the origin server. The system's proxy configuration can be
optionally used, on some platforms.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Complete SSL support; a simple interface for
enabling SSL, hiding the complexity of using an SSL library directly.
Client certificate support, callback-based server certificate
verification, along with functions to load trusted CA certificates.
Smartcard-based client certs are also supported via a wrapper
interface for PKCS#11 modules.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Compressed response support: responses
compressed using the "deflate" algorithm can be transparently
decompressed.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Generic XML parsing interface for handling XML
response bodies using SAX-like callbacks. Both the expat and libxml
XML parser libraries are supported.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>WebDAV metadata support; set and remove
properties, query properties (PROPFIND); simple interface for
retrieving "flat" byte-string properties, more advanced support for
parsing "complex" structured XML properties.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Build environment support: the neon source
tree is designed so that it can be embedded in your application's
build tree; autoconf macros are supplied for integration. To get
started quickly a <a class="xref" href="refconfig.html" title="neon-config"><span class="refentrytitle">neon-config</span></a> script is included,
to easily determine how to compile and link against an installed copy
of neon</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>Complete test suite: the neon test suite
comprises half as many lines of source code as the library itself,
including many tests for protocol compliance in network behaviour, and
that the library implementation meets the guarantees made by the
API.</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="intro.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="intro.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="using.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Chapter 1. Introduction </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> How to use neon from your application</td></tr></table></div></body></html>

provide a consistent and simple interface; these are documented
below.</p><div class="refsect2" title="Thread-safeness and global initialization"><a name="id330499"></a><h3>Thread-safeness and global initialization</h3><p>neon itself is implemented to be thread-safe (avoiding any
use of global state), but relies on the operating system providing
a thread-safe resolver interface. Modern operating systems offer
the thread-safe <code class="function">getaddrinfo</code> interface, which
neon supports; some others implement
<code class="function">gethostbyname</code> using thread-local
storage.</p><p>To allow thread-safe use of SSL in the OpenSSL and GnuTLS
libraries neon must be configured using the
<code class="literal">--enable-threadsafe-ssl</code>; if this is done,
locking callbacks will be registered by <a class="xref" href="refsockinit.html#ne_sock_init">ne_sock_init</a>; note that care must be exercised if
neon is used in conjunction with another library which uses
OpenSSL or GnuTLS.</p><p>Some platforms and libraries used by neon require global
initialization before use; notably:
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem">The <code class="literal">SIGPIPE</code> signal
disposition must be set to <span class="emphasis"><em>ignored</em></span> or
otherwise handled to avoid process termination when writing to a
socket which has been shutdown by the peer.</li><li class="listitem">OpenSSL and GnuTLS require global
initialization to load shared lookup
tables.</li><li class="listitem">The Win32 socket library requires
initialization before use.</li></ul></div><p>
The <a class="xref" href="refsockinit.html#ne_sock_init">ne_sock_init</a> function should be called
before any other use of neon to perform any necessary
initialization needed for the particular platform. Applications
wishing to perform all the necessary process-global initialization
steps themselves may omit to call <a class="xref" href="refsockinit.html#ne_sock_init">ne_sock_init</a>
(and <a class="xref" href="refsockinit.html#ne_sock_exit">ne_sock_exit</a>); neon neither checks whether
these functions are called nor calls them itself.</p><p>For some applications and configurations it may be necessary

for internationalization in neon.</p></div><div class="refsect2" title="Asynchronous signal safety"><a name="id330739"></a><h3>Asynchronous signal safety</h3><p>No function in neon is defined to be <span class="quote"><span class="quote">async-signal safe</span></span> -
that is, no function is safe to call from a signal handler. Any

undefined behaviour - in other words, it may crash the
process.</p></div><div class="refsect2" title="Functions using global state"><a name="id330755"></a><h3>Functions using global state</h3><p>Any function in neon may modify the
<code class="literal">errno</code> global variable as a side-effect. Except

avoid such collisions.</p><p>The neon library reserves the use of the namespace
prefixes <code class="literal">ne_</code> and <code class="literal">NE_</code>. The
libraries used by neon may also reserve certain namespaces;
collisions between these libraries and a neon-based application
will not be detected at compile time, since the underlying library
interfaces are not exposed through the neon header files. Such
collisions can only be detected at link time, when the linker
attempts to resolve symbols. The following list documents some of

<em class="type">ne_request</em> type, specifies that some operation is to be
performed on some resource. The
<code class="function">ne_request_create</code> function creates a request
object, specifying the operation in the <code class="parameter">method</code>
parameter. The location of the resource is determined by the server in
use for the session given by the <code class="parameter">sess</code>
parameter, combined with the <code class="parameter">path</code> parameter.</p><p>The <code class="parameter">path</code> string used must conform to the
<code class="literal">abs_path</code> definition given in RFC2396, with an
optional "?query" part, and must be URI-escaped by the caller (for
instance, using <code class="function">ne_path_escape</code>). If the string
comes from an untrusted source, failure to perform URI-escaping
results in a security vulnerability.</p><p>To dispatch a request, and process the response, the
<code class="function">ne_request_dispatch</code> function can be used. An
alternative is to use the (more complex, but more flexible)
combination of the <code class="function">ne_begin_request</code>,
<code class="function">ne_end_request</code>, and
<code class="function">ne_read_response_block</code> functions; see
<code class="function">ne_begin_request</code>.</p><p>To add extra headers in the request, the functions <a class="xref" href="refreqhdr.html#ne_add_request_header">ne_add_request_header</a> and <a class="xref" href="refreqhdr.html#ne_print_request_header">ne_print_request_header</a> can be used.

<code class="function">ne_set_request_body_buffer</code>, <a class="xref" href="refreqbody.html#ne_set_request_body_fd">ne_set_request_body_fd</a>, or
<code class="function">ne_set_request_body_provider</code> can be used.</p><p>The return value of
<code class="function">ne_request_dispatch</code> indicates merely whether the
request was sent and the response read successfully. To discover the
result of the operation, <a class="xref" href="refgetst.html#ne_get_status">ne_get_status</a>, along with
any processing of the response headers and message body.</p><p>A request can only be dispatched once: calling
<code class="function">ne_request_dispatch</code> more than once on a
single <em class="type">ne_request</em> object produces undefined
behaviour. Once all processing associated with the request
object is complete, use the
<code class="function">ne_request_destroy</code> function to destroy
the resources associated with it. Any subsequent use of the
request object produces undefined behaviour.</p><p>If a request is being using a non-idempotent method such
as <code class="literal">POST</code>, the
<code class="literal">NE_REQFLAG_IDEMPOTENT</code> flag should be
disabled; see <a class="xref" href="refreqflags.html#ne_set_request_flag">ne_set_request_flag</a>.</p></div><div class="refsect1" title="Return value"><a name="id339456"></a><h2>Return value</h2><p>The <code class="function">ne_request_create</code> function

<code class="function">ne_sock_exit</code> can be called to perform
de-initialization of socket or SSL libraries, if necessary. Uses
of <code class="function">ne_sock_init</code> and
<code class="function">ne_sock_exit</code> are "reference counted"; if N
calls to <code class="function">ne_sock_init</code> are made, only the Nth

<span class="emphasis"><em>ignored</em></span>. No change is made to the
<code class="literal">SIGPIPE</code> disposition by
<code class="function">ne_sock_exit</code>.</p><p>Both the SSL libraries supported by neon — OpenSSL
and GnuTLS — require callbacks to be registered to allow
thread-safe use of SSL. These callbacks are stored as global
variables and so their state persists for as long as the library
in question is loaded into the process. If multiple users of the
SSL library exist within the process, this can be problematic,
particularly if one is dynamically loaded (and may subsequently be
unloaded).</p><p>If neon is configured using the
<code class="literal">--enable-threadsafe-ssl</code> flag, thread-safe SSL
support will be enabled automatically, as covered in the following
section. Otherwise, it is not safe to use neon with SSL in a
multi-threaded process. The <a class="xref" href="reffeat.html#ne_has_support">ne_has_support</a>

enable thread-safety support in the SSL library.</p><div class="refsect2" title="Thread-safe SSL with OpenSSL"><a name="id343706"></a><h3>Thread-safe SSL with OpenSSL</h3><p>neon follows two simple rules when dealing with the

<code class="function">ne_sock_exit</code> cannot unregister them. If
multiple users of GnuTLS are present within the process, it is
unsafe to dynamically unload neon from the process if neon

possible attack and describes what mitigation is used in

for clients to verify that the X.509 certificate presented by the
server matches the server's expected identity. The algorithm
required for this purpose is described in RFC 2818 and RFC 3280,
and is implemented by neon in the following manner:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><p>the hostname argument passed to <a class="xref" href="refsess.html#ne_session_create">ne_session_create</a> is the expected identity of the

for comparision against the expected identity, in preference
to the Subject name's commonName attribute.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>the dNSName, iPAddress, and uniformResourceIdentifier
classes of GeneralName are supported in subjectAltName
comparison.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>if no subjectAltName is present in the certificate, the
most specific commonName attribute in the Subject name is used
for comparison instead.</p></li></ul></div><p>In the case where a server certificate is presented that
does not match the expected identity (or is otherwise not
trusted), neon will fail the request by default. This behaviour
can be overridden by the use of a callback installed using <a class="xref" href="refsslvfy.html#ne_ssl_set_verify">ne_ssl_set_verify</a>, which allows the application to
present the certificate details to a user for manual/off-line
verification, if possible.</p><p>Test cases for the correctness of the implementation of the

allowing the application (and hence, user) to specify that only a
specific set of authentication protocols is permitted.</p><p>neon supports the Digest and Negotiate authentication
schemes, which both allow authentication of users without passing
credentials in cleartext over the wire. The "domain" parameter is
supported in Digest, allowing the server to restrict an

application. If you just want to quickly try out neon, use
the <a class="xref" href="refconfig.html" title="neon-config"><span class="refentrytitle">neon-config</span></a> script.</p><p>The neon source code is designed to be easily embedded
into an application source tree. neon has no dependencies on
libraries other than an SSL toolkit and XML parser, though the
source tree can be configured to have no support for SSL or XML
if desired. To configure the neon source code some <a class="ulink" href="http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/" target="_top">GNU autoconf</a>
macros are supplied, which can be used in a number of ways, as
follows:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><p>autoconf macros are distributed in the 'macros'
subdirectory of the neon distribution. Use the NEON_LIBRARY
macro from your configure.in to check for the presence of
the neon library installed on the system. The macro adds an
'--with-neon=...' argument to configure, which allows the
user to specify a location for the library (the standard
/usr and /usr/local directories are checked automatically
without having to be specified).</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>The 'src' directory of the neon package can be
imported directly into your application, if you do not wish
to add an external dependency. If you wish to bundle, use
the NEON_BUNDLED macro to configure neon in your application:
here, the neon sources are bundled in a directory called
'libneon':</p><pre class="programlisting">NEON_BUNDLED(libneon, ...)</pre><p>If your application supports builds where srcdir != builddir,
you should use the NEON_VPATH_BUNDLED macro like this:</p><pre class="programlisting">NEON_VPATH_BUNDLED(${srcdir}/libneon, libneon, ...)</pre><p>If you use this macro, a '--with-included-neon' option
will be added to the generated configure script. This
allows the user to force the bundled neon to be used in the
application, rather than any neon library found on the
system. If you allow neon to be configured this way, you
must also configure an XML parser. Use the NEON_XML_PARSER
macro to do this.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>The final argument to the _BUNDLED macros is a
set of actions which are executed if the bundled build *is*
chosen (rather than an external neon which might have been
found on the user's system). In here, use either the
NEON_LIBTOOL_BUILD or NEON_NORMAL_BUILD macro to set up the
neon Makefile appropriately: including adding the neon source
directory to the recursive make.</p></li></ul></div><p>A full fragment might be:</p><pre class="programlisting">NEON_BUNDLED(libneon, [
NEON_NORMAL_BUILD
NEON_XML_PARSER
SUBDIRS="libneon $SUBDIRS"
])</pre><p>This means the bundled neon source directory (called 'libneon')
is used if no neon is found on the system, and the standard XML
parser search is used.</p></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="features.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="intro.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="compliance.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Feature list </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> Standards compliance</td></tr></table></div></body></html>

wrapper around the standard <a class="ulink" href="http://www.saxproject.org/" target="_top">SAX</a> API used by XML
parsers, with an additional abstraction, <em class="firstterm">stacked SAX
handlers</em>, and also giving consistent <a class="ulink" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names" target="_top">XML Namespace</a> support.</p><div class="sect2" title="Introduction to SAX"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="xml-sax"></a>Introduction to SAX</h3></div></div></div><p>A SAX-based parser works by emitting a sequence of
<em class="firstterm">events</em> to reflect the tokens being parsed
from the XML document. For example, parsing the following document
fragment:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
&lt;hello&gt;world&lt;/hello&gt;
</pre><p>
results in the following events:
</p><div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="1"><li class="listitem"><span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> "hello"</li><li class="listitem"><span class="emphasis"><em>character-data</em></span> "world"</li><li class="listitem"><span class="emphasis"><em>end-element</em></span> "hello"</li></ol></div><p>
This example demonstrates the three event types used used in the
subset of SAX exposed by the neon XML interface: <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span>,
<span class="emphasis"><em>character-data</em></span> and <span class="emphasis"><em>end-element</em></span>. In a C API, an <span class="quote"><span class="quote">event</span></span> is
implemented as a function callback; three callback types are used in
neon, one for each type of event.</p></div><div class="sect2" title="Stacked SAX handlers"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="xml-stacked"></a>Stacked SAX handlers</h3></div></div></div><p>WebDAV property values are represented as fragments of XML,
transmitted as parts of larger XML documents over HTTP (notably in
the body of the response to a <code class="literal">PROPFIND</code> request).
When neon parses such documents, the SAX events generated for
these property value fragments may need to be handled by the
application, since neon has no knowledge of the structure of
properties used by the application.</p><p>To solve this problem<sup>[<a name="foot.xml.sax" href="#ftn.foot.xml.sax" class="footnote">1</a>]</sup> the neon XML interface introduces
the concept of a <em class="firstterm">SAX handler</em>. A SAX handler
comprises a <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>character-data</em></span> and <span class="emphasis"><em>end-element</em></span> callback; the
<span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> callback being defined such that each handler may
<span class="emphasis"><em>accept</em></span> or <span class="emphasis"><em>decline</em></span> the
<span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> event. Handlers are composed into a <em class="firstterm">handler
stack</em> before parsing a document. When a new <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span>
event is generated by the XML parser, neon invokes each <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span>
callback in the handler stack in turn until one accepts the event.
The handler which accepts the event will then be subsequently be
passed <span class="emphasis"><em>character-data</em></span> events if the element contains character data,
followed by an <span class="emphasis"><em>end-element</em></span> event when the element is closed. If no
handler in the stack accepts a <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> event, the branch of the
tree is ignored.</p><p>To illustrate, given a handler A, which accepts the
<code class="literal">cat</code> and <code class="literal">age</code> elements, and a
handler B, which accepts the <code class="literal">name</code> element, the
following document:
</p><div class="example"><a name="xml-example"></a><p class="title"><b>Example 2.1. An example XML document</b></p><div class="example-contents"><pre class="programlisting">
&lt;cat&gt;
&lt;age&gt;3&lt;/age&gt;
&lt;name&gt;Bob&lt;/name&gt;
&lt;/cat&gt;
</pre></div></div><p><br class="example-break">
would be parsed as follows:
</p><div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="1"><li class="listitem">A <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> "cat" → <span class="emphasis"><em>accept</em></span></li><li class="listitem">A <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> "age" → <span class="emphasis"><em>accept</em></span></li><li class="listitem">A <span class="emphasis"><em>character-data</em></span> "3"</li><li class="listitem">A <span class="emphasis"><em>end-element</em></span> "age"</li><li class="listitem">A <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> "name" → <span class="emphasis"><em>decline</em></span></li><li class="listitem">B <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> "name" → <span class="emphasis"><em>accept</em></span></li><li class="listitem">B <span class="emphasis"><em>character-data</em></span> "Bob"</li><li class="listitem">B <span class="emphasis"><em>end-element</em></span> "name"</li><li class="listitem">A <span class="emphasis"><em>end-element</em></span> "cat"</li></ol></div><p>The search for a handler which will accept a <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> event
begins at the handler of the parent element and continues toward the
top of the stack. For the root element, it begins at the base of
the stack. In the above example, handler A is at the base, and
handler B at the top; if the <code class="literal">name</code> element had any
children, only B's <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> would be invoked to accept
them.</p></div><div class="sect2" title="Maintaining state"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="xml-state"></a>Maintaining state</h3></div></div></div><p>To facilitate communication between independent handlers, a
<em class="firstterm">state integer</em> is associated with each element
being parsed. This integer is returned by <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> callback and
is passed to the subsequent <span class="emphasis"><em>character-data</em></span> and <span class="emphasis"><em>end-element</em></span> callbacks
associated with the element. The state integer of the parent
element is also passed to each <span class="emphasis"><em>start-element</em></span> callback, the value zero
used for the root element (which by definition has no
parent).</p><p>To further extend <a class="xref" href="xml.html#xml-example" title="Example 2.1. An example XML document">Example 2.1, “An example XML document”</a>: if handler A
