Empty line after headers

[Julien ÉLIE]

Hi,

art = SMretrieve(token, RETR_HEAD);

returns the header *with* the empty line at its end.
Therefore, the result of the HEAD command is not RFC-compliant.

I see that SMretrieve for RETR_HEAD is called at several places in the code.
After a quick glance, I do not think the empty line is used at any moment.


However, the result depends on the storage method.  I have not checked
whether each method returns the empty line.


An easy fix is:

--- innd/nc.c   (révision 7952)
+++ innd/nc.c   (copie de travail)
@@ -306,7 +306,7 @@
     WCHANappend(cp, " 0 ", 3);
     WCHANappend(cp, p, strlen(p));
     WCHANappend(cp, NCterm, strlen(NCterm));
-    WCHANappend(cp, art->data, art->len);
+    WCHANappend(cp, art->data, art->len - 2);

     /* Write the terminator. */
     NCwritereply(cp, NCdot);



Should I check whether art->len is > 2?  I think it cannot happen but...


Or I could fix the return of SMretrieve directly.  But I do not know
the impact it will trigger off...
