HTTP Time Protocol 1.0.4 (KIS branch)
10-14-2008
HTTP Time Protocol is a time synchronization tool that uses Web server responses (HTTP headers) instead of the NTP protocol. If you are behind a corporate firewall, NAT device, or proxy server, HTP will still be able to synchronize the time. For high precision time synchronization, use ntpd.

HTTP::Proxy::HeaderFilter(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTTP::Proxy::HeaderFilter(3pm) NAME
HTTP::Proxy::HeaderFilter - A base class for HTTP message header filters SYNOPSIS
package MyFilter; use base qw( HTTP::Proxy::HeaderFilter ); # changes the User-Agent header in all requests # this filter must be pushed on the request stack sub filter { my ( $self, $headers, $message ) = @_; $message->headers->header( User_Agent => 'MyFilter/1.0' ); } 1; DESCRIPTION
The HTTP::Proxy::HeaderFilter class is used to create filters for HTTP request/response headers. Creating a HeaderFilter A HeaderFilter is just a derived class that implements some methods called by the proxy. Of all the methods presented below, only "filter()" must be defined in the derived class. filter() The signature of the filter() method is the following: sub filter { my ( $self, $headers, $message) = @_; ... } where $self is the filter object, $headers is a HTTP::Headers object, and $message is either a HTTP::Request or a HTTP::Response object. The $headers HTTP::Headers object is the one that will be sent to the client (if the filter is on the response stack) or origin server (if the filter is on the request stack). If $headers is modified by the filter, the modified headers will be sent to the client or server. The init() method (if it exists) is called by the new() constructeur to perform all initisalisation tasks. It's called once in the filter lifetime. A HTTP::Proxy::HeaderFilter object is a blessed hash, and the base class reserves only hash keys that start with "_hphf". new() The constructor is defined for all subclasses. Initialisation tasks (if any) for subclasses should be done in the "init()" method (see below). init() This method is called by the "new()" constructeur to perform all initisalisation tasks. It's called once in the filter lifetime. It receives all the parameters passed to "new()". Standard HeaderFilters Standard HTTP::Proxy::HeaderFilter classes are lowercase. The following HeaderFilters are included in the HTTP::Proxy distribution: simple This class lets you create a simple header filter from a code reference. standard This is the filter that provides standard headers handling for HTTP::Proxy. It is loaded automatically by HTTP::Proxy. Please read each filter's documentation for more details about their use. USEFUL METHODS FOR SUBCLASSES
Some methods are available to filters, so that they can eventually use the little knowledge they might have of HTTP::Proxy's internals. They mostly are accessors. proxy() Gets a reference to the HTTP::Proxy objects that owns the filter. This gives access to some of the proxy methods. AUTHOR
