Package httxlib :: Module httxoptions

Module httxoptions

Module that implements the domain wide options that connecting objects can share

A set of options apply to a HttxManager and all pending objects.

If a HttxManager is cloned, it can be cloned sharing the options or not. If the options are shared, so will be the cookies, compression schemes allowed, username and passwords, certificate files.

If the options are not shared the new HttxManager will be completely separate from the original.

Since options can be directly instantiated by HttxNetLocation and HttxConnection, the same logic applies on cloning
