Deprecated API

Prefer instead to configuring a HttpHeadersFactory by calling withCombiningHeaders(true) on DefaultHttpHeadersFactory#headersFactory().

Not part of RFC6265

Use comment() instead.

Use domain() instead.

Use name() instead.

Use ports() instead.

Use version() instead.

Use io.netty.handler.codec.http.cookie.ClientCookieDecoder or io.netty.handler.codec.http.cookie.ServerCookieDecoder instead. Decodes an HTTP header value into Cookies. This decoder can decode the HTTP cookie version 0, 1, and 2.

HttpRequest req = ...;
String value = req.getHeader("Cookie");
Set<Cookie> cookies = CookieDecoder.decode(value);

Deprecated as a consequence of CookieDecoder being deprecated. See corresponding docs for further information.

Duplicate of package private $io.netty.handler.codec.http.cookie.CookieUtil

Use the DefaultFullHttpRequest(HttpVersion, HttpMethod, String, ByteBuf, HttpHeadersFactory, HttpHeadersFactory) constructor instead.

Prefer the DefaultFullHttpResponse(HttpVersion, HttpResponseStatus, ByteBuf, HttpHeadersFactory, HttpHeadersFactory) constructor instead.

Prefer the DefaultFullHttpResponse(HttpVersion, HttpResponseStatus, ByteBuf, HttpHeadersFactory, HttpHeadersFactory) constructor instead.

Prefer using the DefaultHttpHeaders() constructor instead, to always have validation enabled.

Use the DefaultHttpMessage(HttpVersion, HttpHeadersFactory) constructor instead, ideally using the DefaultHttpHeadersFactory#headersFactory(), or a factory that otherwise has validation enabled.

Use the DefaultHttpResponse(HttpVersion, HttpResponseStatus, HttpHeadersFactory) constructor instead.

Use EmptyHttpHeaders#INSTANCE

This is needed to break a cyclic static initialization loop between HttpHeaders and EmptyHttpHeaders.

Prefer the HttpClientCodec(int, int, int, boolean) constructor, to always enable header validation.

Prefer the HttpClientCodec(HttpDecoderConfig, boolean, boolean) constructor, to always enable header validation.

Prefer the HttpClientCodec(HttpDecoderConfig, boolean, boolean) constructor, to always enable header validation.

Use DateFormatter instead

use CONNECTION "keep-alive"

Use EmptyHttpHeaders#INSTANCE.

The instance is instantiated here to break the cyclic static initialization between EmptyHttpHeaders and HttpHeaders. The issue is that if someone accesses EmptyHttpHeaders#INSTANCE before HttpHeaders#EMPTY_HEADERS then HttpHeaders#EMPTY_HEADERS will be null.

Use HttpHeaderValues instead. Standard HTTP header values.

Use add(CharSequence, Object) instead. Adds a new date header with the specified name and value. The specified value is formatted as defined in RFC2616

Use add(CharSequence, Object) instead. Adds a new header with the specified name and value. If the specified value is not a String, it is converted into a String by Object#toString(), except for Date and Calendar which are formatted to the date format defined in RFC2616.

Use addInt(CharSequence, int) instead. Adds a new integer header with the specified name and value.

Use HttpUtil#getContentLength(HttpMessage) instead. Returns the length of the content. Please note that this value is not retrieved from HttpContent#content() but from the "Content-Length" header, and thus they are independent from each other.

Use getTimeMillis(CharSequence) instead. Returns the value of the "Date" header.

Use getTimeMillis(CharSequence) instead.

Use getTimeMillis(CharSequence, long) instead.

Use get(CharSequence) instead.

Use get(CharSequence, String) instead.

Use get(CharSequence) instead. Returns the value of the "Host" header.

Use getInt(CharSequence) instead.

Use getInt(CharSequence, int) instead.

Use HttpUtil#is100ContinueExpected(HttpMessage) instead. Returns true if and only if the specified message contains the "Expect: 100-continue" header.

Use HttpUtil#isKeepAlive(HttpMessage) instead. Returns true if and only if the connection can remain open and thus 'kept alive'. This methods respects the value of the "Connection" header first and then the return value of HttpVersion#isKeepAliveDefault().

It is preferred to use iteratorCharSequence() unless you need String. If String is required then use iteratorAsString().

Use remove(CharSequence) instead.

Use HttpUtil#setTransferEncodingChunked(HttpMessage, boolean) instead.

Use HttpUtil#set100ContinueExpected(HttpMessage, boolean) instead. Sets or removes the "Expect: 100-continue" header to / from the specified message. If set is true, the "Expect: 100-continue" header is set and all other previous "Expect" headers are removed. Otherwise, all "Expect" headers are removed completely.

Use set(CharSequence, Object) instead. Sets the "Date" header.

Use set(CharSequence, Object) instead. Sets a new date header with the specified name and value. If there is an existing header with the same name, the existing header is removed. The specified value is formatted as defined in RFC2616

Use set(CharSequence, Iterable) instead. Sets a new date header with the specified name and values. If there is an existing header with the same name, the existing header is removed. The specified values are formatted as defined in RFC2616

Use set(CharSequence, Object) instead. Sets a new header with the specified name and value. If there is an existing header with the same name, the existing header is removed. If the specified value is not a String, it is converted into a String by Object#toString(), except for Date and Calendar which are formatted to the date format defined in RFC2616.

Use set(CharSequence, Iterable) instead. Sets a new header with the specified name and values. If there is an existing header with the same name, the existing header is removed. This getMethod can be represented approximately as the following code:

removeHeader(message, name);
for (Object v: values) {
    if (v == null) {
        break;
    }
    addHeader(message, name, v);
}

Use set(CharSequence, Object) instead. Sets the "Host" header.

Use setInt(CharSequence, int) instead. Sets a new integer header with the specified name and value. If there is an existing header with the same name, the existing header is removed.

Use set(CharSequence, Iterable) instead. Sets a new integer header with the specified name and values. If there is an existing header with the same name, the existing header is removed.

Use HttpUtil#setTransferEncodingChunked(HttpMessage, boolean) instead.

Use decoderResult() instead.

Use HttpObjectDecoder(HttpDecoderConfig) instead.

Use HttpObjectDecoder(HttpDecoderConfig) instead.

Use method() instead.

Prefer the HttpRequestDecoder(HttpDecoderConfig) constructor, to always have header validation enabled.

Prefer the HttpRequestDecoder(HttpDecoderConfig) constructor, to always have header validation enabled.

Use status() instead.

Prefer the HttpResponseDecoder(HttpDecoderConfig) constructor.

Prefer the HttpResponseDecoder(HttpDecoderConfig) constructor.

Prefer the HttpServerCodec(HttpDecoderConfig) constructor, to always enable header validation.

Prefer the HttpServerCodec(HttpDecoderConfig) constructor, to always enable header validation.

Use io.netty.handler.codec.http.cookie.ServerCookieEncoder instead

CookieUtil is package private, will be removed once old Cookie API is dropped

Use CorsConfigBuilder instead.

Use CorsConfigBuilder#allowCredentials() instead.

Use CorsConfigBuilder#allowedRequestHeaders(String...) instead.

Use CorsConfigBuilder#build() instead.

Use CorsConfigBuilder#exposeHeaders(String...) instead.

Use CorsConfigBuilder#noPreflightResponseHeaders() instead.

Use CorsConfigBuilder#preflightResponseHeader(CharSequence, Iterable) instead.

Use CorsConfigBuilder#shortCircuit() instead.

Use isShortCircuit() instead.

Use CorsConfigBuilder#forOrigin(String) instead.

Use cleanAllHttpData() instead.

Use readChunk(ByteBufAllocator). Fetches a chunked data from the stream. Once this method returns the last chunk and thus the stream has reached at its end, any subsequent isEndOfInput() call must return true.

in favor of HandshakeComplete class, it provides extra information about the handshake

Use RtspHeaderNames or RtspHeaderValues instead. Standard RTSP header names and values.

Use RtspHeaderValues instead. Standard RTSP header values.

Use RtspEncoder instead.

Use RtspEncoder directly instead

Use RtspEncoder directly instead

Use the SpdyHttpDecoder(SpdyVersion, int, Map, HttpHeadersFactory, HttpHeadersFactory) constructor instead.
