Re: [Haskell-cafe] Contributing to http-conduit

I have attached a patch to add a redirect chain to the Response datatype. Comments on this patch are very welcome. I was originally going to include the entire Request object in the redirection chain, but Request objects are parameterized with a type 'm', so including a 'Request m' field would force the Response type to be parameterized as well. I felt that would be too large a change, so I made the type of the redirection chain W.Ascii. Perhaps its worth using the 'forall' keyword to get rid of the pesky 'm' type parameter for Requests? data RequestBody = RequestBodyLBS L.ByteString | RequestBodyBS S.ByteString | RequestBodyBuilder Int64 Blaze.Builder | forall m. RequestBodySource Int64 (C.Source m Blaze.Builder) | forall m. RequestBodySourceChunked (C.Source m Blaze.Builder) --Myles On Mon, Jan 23, 2012 at 3:31 AM, Michael Snoyman wrote:

Rejecting cookies is not without precedent.

If you must force cookie handling upon us, at least make it possible to selectively reject them.

If you turn off automatic redirects, then you won't have cookie handling. I'd be interested to hear of a use case where you would want to avoid passing cookies after a redirect.
