Hi, HTTPConnection.putrequest not support "chunked" Transfer-Encodings to send data. Exemple, I can't do PUT request with chunk transfert. Regards, Stephane |

What's the use case? Do you have an iterable that yields data whose size is unknown? AFAIK, most web servers don't even support chunked uploads. (Removing Python 2.7 from versions as this is clearly a feature request.) |

I use http.client in WebDAV client. Mac OS X Finder WebDAV client perform all his request in "chunk" mode : PUT and GET. Here, I use http.client to simulate Mac OS X Finder WebDAVÂ client. Regards, Stephane |

Now I'm confused. Per the HTTP specification, GET requests don't have a body, so "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" doesn't apply to them. Are you sure you don't confuse with the response that the server sends? In responses, "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" is very common. |

In responses, "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" is very common. Sorry, yes GET requests have "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" in server response. PUT requests can send body data in transfer-encoding chunked mode. |

We had support for chunked transfer encoding for POST method recently, which is exposed via urllib2 wrapper function. PUT is not exposed via urllib2 and users should use httplib. This feature of chunked transfer can be added to PUT by taking the body of the message as iterable. |

If I look at AbstractHTTPHandler.do_request_, it actually mandates a Content-Length header for POST data (hence no chunked encoding). |
