Description
I can't seem to close an HTTP response body while it's still sending data. I ran into
this in an app I was writing, but I believe the following client and server demonstrate
the problem (sorry, not sure how to write a trustworthy test for this):
// server.go:
package main
import (
"log"
"net/http"
"time"
)
func foreverYoung(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
w.Header().Set("Content-type", "application/javascript")
w.Header().Set("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*")
w.WriteHeader(200)
for {
w.Write([]byte("young\r\n"))
w.(http.Flusher).Flush()
time.Sleep(time.Second)
}
}
func main() {
http.HandleFunc("/", foreverYoung)
log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe(":4334", nil))
}
// client.go:
package main
import (
"log"
"net/http"
"os"
)
func main() {
resp, err := http.Get("http://localhost:4334/";)
if err == nil {
func() {
defer resp.Body.Close()
for {
b := []byte{0}
_, err := resp.Body.Read(b)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("Error reading stuff: %v", err)
}
os.Stdout.Write(b)
if b[0] == byte('\n') {
return
}
}
}()
} else {
log.Fatalf("Error in stream: %v", err)
}
}
