Henrik Rydgård a15e654f11 naett: Don't hand a closing response to backends that can't see its request
naettClose cleared res->request and then asked the backend to close the
response - but the request is what a backend needs to do that. On Windows it
owns the WinHTTP handles, so the close had nothing to work with, which is part
of why it did nothing at all. Backend first, then clear.

With that in place, the Windows close unhooks the status callback and shuts the
request handle, so a completion raised later can't write through the response
after it's freed. It stops short of a full cancel: a callback already running on
another thread isn't waited for, which needs the HANDLE_CLOSING handshake.

On Apple, invalidateAndCancel returns before the session has finished with its
delegate, so clear the delegate's pointer back to the response first and have
didReceiveData check it, the way didCompleteWithError already did.

Android is still the only backend that genuinely cancels and waits, so naett.h
now says a response should be complete before it's closed rather than leaving
that to be discovered.

naett /nɛt:/

Tiny HTTP client library in C.

Wraps native HTTP client functionality on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android in a single, simple non-blocking API.

Using naett

Get the naett.c and naett.h files and throw them into your project. Check out the example for a basic Makefile - based setup.

The library needs to be initialized by a call to naettInit(). On Android, you need to provide a JavaVM* handle in the call to naettInit(). On the other platforms, call with NULL.

See naett.h for reference docs.

Platform implementations

naett uses the following HTTP client libraries on each platform:

Platform Library / component Build with
macOS, iOS NSURLRequest -framework Foundation
Windows WinHTTP Sessions -lwinhttp
Android java.net.URL NDK
Linux libcurl -lcurl -lpthread

Example

#include "naett.h"
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
    naettInit(NULL);

    naettReq* req =
        naettRequest("https://foo.site.net", naettMethod("GET"), naettHeader("accept", "application/json"));

    naettRes* res = naettMake(req);

    while (!naettComplete(res)) {
        usleep(100 * 1000);
    }

    if (naettGetStatus(res) < 0) {
        printf("Request failed\n");
        return 1;
    }

    int bodyLength = 0;
    const char* body = naettGetBody(res, &bodyLength);

    printf("Got %d bytes of type '%s':\n", bodyLength, naettGetHeader(res, "Content-Type"));
    printf("%.100s\n...\n", body);
}
