- --no-quic leaves QUIC, HTTP/3 and WebTransport out of the build, and with
them msquic: a consumer that only needs TCP builds no msquic. The flag
isn't passed on to dependencies.
- --local takes Crafter.Thread from the sibling checkout, as the other
Crafter projects do.
- ClientTCP gains SetNoDelay, SetReceiveTimeout, a connect timeout and
SocketTimeoutException.
- TCP receives return the bytes that arrived:
- RecieveSync(n) returned the whole buffer when fewer had come;
- RecieveUntilCloseSync truncated what it had read;
- a signal (EINTR) during a receive threw where it should wait on;
- RecieveSync(size, buffer) returns the count and throws like the others;
- a receive of no bytes returns at once: recv's 0 for it isn't a close.
- Every TCP *Async receive takes an onError(std::exception_ptr): an
exception escaping a ThreadPool task ended the program. An empty onError
drops the error.
- QUIC streams:
- async receives deliver an empty chunk on close, as the browser build does;
- RecieveUntilFullAsync gives what arrived on a stream that closes early;
- RecieveUntilFullSync takes all it asked for or nothing, under one hold
of the lock, so what did arrive stays for the next receive and no
other receive can take bytes from among it;
- SendAsync's callback hears whether the send went out (bool sent): native,
browser, the JS bridge and the example.
- msquic is pinned to v2.6.3 and built against the system OpenSSL
(QUIC_TLS_LIB=openssl, 3.5 or newer). Its bundled quictls read the system's
openssl.cnf, and the Flatpak runtime's (a PKCS#11 engine, with
config_diagnostics on) made it fail to initialise. The README says to use
--no-quic where the distro's OpenSSL is older.
- Tests now register on any Linux triple: they never ran under the Flatpak's
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu. New: ShouldBuildWithoutQUIC, ShouldConfigureTCP,
ShouldRecieveTCP, ShouldReportClosedQUICStream.
Breaking: SendAsync's callback takes a bool, the TCP *Async receives take
an onError, and RecieveSync(size, buffer) returns the count.

HTTP/1.1 was plaintext-only, which left `https://` to either an HTTP/3
listener or a terminating proxy in front. Neither helps the callers this
stack exists for — curl scripts, CI tooling, old proxies — so wrap the
transport in libssl instead.
Two new partitions:
:Stream a ByteStream with per-call deadlines on both directions, plus
the plaintext socket implementation. The HTTP/1.1 client and
listener now hold a ByteStream& and never learn which
transport they have, which is what lets one code path serve
both schemes.
:TLS TLSContext/TLSStream over OpenSSL 3, with credentials for both
roles: chain and hostname verification on by default, private
trust anchors, client certificates, mutual TLS, ALPN, and an
in-process self-signed certificate for development.
Both descriptors go non-blocking and every read and write is driven by
poll() against a deadline. That is required for TLS — a blocking
descriptor cannot express a handshake timeout — and it means a plaintext
write can now time out too, instead of parking forever against a peer
that stopped reading.
ClientHTTP1 and ListenerHTTP1 gain credential-taking constructors; the
existing ones still speak http://. The listener handshakes on the
connection's own thread, so a peer that stalls mid-handshake costs one
thread rather than the accept loop, and a failed handshake is counted
rather than logged — on a public port it is ordinary traffic.
MessageParser gains SetDefaultScheme so origin-form targets report the
scheme the transport actually used; handlers shared with ListenerHTTP now
see the same "https" they would over HTTP/3.

HTTP/3-only is not a deployable position yet: plenty of clients, proxies
and CI tooling still speak nothing but HTTP/1.1. This adds that path
using the request/response types the HTTP/3 stack already uses, so a
route handler or call site moves between the two protocols by changing
the class name.
- :HTTP1 — transport-free wire format. Serialisation with the framing
headers owned by the serialiser, and an incremental parser that takes
arbitrary socket chunks and yields one message at a time: keep-alive,
pipelining, content-length and chunked bodies (with trailers),
read-to-EOF responses, interim 1xx skipping, HEAD/204/304 framing and
Expect: 100-continue. Ambiguous framing is rejected rather than
guessed at (content-length with transfer-encoding, disagreeing
content-lengths, whitespace before a colon), and CR/LF in a value we
are asked to serialise is refused.
- ClientHTTP1 — persistent connection, redialling once when a pooled
connection turns out to have been closed by the peer, which is the
race HTTP/1.1 keep-alive cannot avoid. Nothing is replayed after a
response byte has arrived.
- ListenerHTTP1 — one thread per connection (keep-alive connections are
idle most of their life and would pin every ThreadPool thread),
automatic Date, HEAD, 100-continue, handler-requested close, idle and
request timeouts, and 400/404/500 responses. Routes fall back to the
query-stripped path so `/thing?x=1` reaches the handler for `/thing`.
No TLS: this is `http://` only. Encrypted traffic still goes over
HTTP/3, or through a TLS-terminating proxy.
Tests: codec unit tests including the malformed inputs above, a
client/server round-trip, keep-alive and stale-connection recovery, a
10 MiB body both ways, and interop both directions against curl and
python3's http.server (skipped when those are not installed).
