Turns out that Monty didn't intend for the int-flavored representation of
HttpStatus to expand to 64 bits even when unsigned long is that wide. So
change the implicit conversion operator, and its uses, to U32 instead. That
produces a consistent toHex() result for both 32-bit and 64-bit builds.
This is the function in indra/llmessage/tests/testrunner.py that iterates
through ports in a specified range, looking for an available one. Other
platforms understand a specification of port 0 to mean: "You pick one. I'll
just use whichever one you picked."
Instead of having testrunner.run()'s caller pass a Thread object on which to
run the caller's server instance's serve_forever() method, just pass the
server instance. testrunner.run() now constructs the Thread. This API change
allows run() to also call shutdown() on the server instance when done, and
then join() the Thread.
The hope is that this will avoid the Python runtime forcing the process
termination code to 1 due to forcibly killing the daemon thread still running
serve_forever().
While at it, eliminate calls to testrunner.freeport() -- just make the runtime
pick a suitable port instead.
Loath though I am to skip testing, this consistent failure is not a failure in
the software being tested (llcorehttp) but rather in the dummy server with
which we're testing it.
It's possible that raising an exception in a worker thread -- even though
we're TRYING to suppress it -- is what's causing the process to terminate with
nonzero rc.
llcorehttp/tests had a clone of llmessage/tests/testrunner.py that was almost
identical save for recognizing an extra optional parameter. Migrate those few
lines into llmessage/tests/testrunner.py; eliminate the copy in llcorehttp;
help test_llcorehttp_peer.py find the testrunner.py in llmessage/tests.
Added toTerseString() conversion on HttpStatus to generate a string
that's more descriptive than the hex value of the HttpStatus value
but still forms a short, searchable token (e.g. "Http_503" or
"Core_7"). Using this throughout the viewer now, no live cases
of toHex(), I believe.
Much improved. Unified the global and class options into a single
option list. Implemented static and dynamic setting paths as much
as possible. Dynamic path does require packet/RPC but otherwise
there's near unification. Dynamic modes can't get values back yet
due to the response/notifier scheme but this doesn't bother me.
Flatten global and class options into simpler struct-like entities.
Setter/getter available on these when needed (external APIs) but code
can otherwise fiddle directly when it knows what to do. Much duplicated
options/state removed from HttpPolicy. Comments cleaned up. Threads
better described and consistently mentioned in API docs. Integration
test extended for 503 responses with Reply-After headers.
