The threee tags `<name>`, `</name>` and `<command>` were frequently used
with a leading space that this removes. The reason this habbit is so
widespread in testcases is probably that they have been copy and pasted.
Hence, fixing them all now might curb this practice from now on.
Closes#12028
Generate alphanumerical random strings.
Prior this change curl used to create random hex strings. This was
mostly okay, but having alphanumerical random strings is better: The
strings have more entropy in the same space.
The MIME multipart boundary used to be mere 64-bits of randomness due
to being 16 hex chars. With these changes the boundary is 22
alphanumerical chars, or little over 130 bits of randomness.
Closes#11838
Until now, form field and file names where escaped using the
backslash-escaping algorithm defined for multipart mails. This commit
replaces this with the percent-escaping method for URLs.
As this may introduce incompatibilities with server-side applications, a
new libcurl option CURLOPT_MIME_OPTIONS with bitmask
CURLMIMEOPT_FORMESCAPE is introduced to revert to legacy use of
backslash-escaping. This is controlled by new cli tool option
--form-escape.
New tests and documentation are provided for this feature.

- document the double-quote and backslash need be escaped if quoting.
- libcurl formdata escape double-quote in filename by backslash.
- curl formparse can parse filename both contains '"' and ',' or ';'.
- curl now can uploading file with ',' or ';' in filename.
Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=1171
Consistently use CRLF instead. The mixed endings weren't
documented so I assume they were unintentional.
This change doesn't matter for curl itself but makes using
the tests with a proxy between curl and the test server
more convenient.
Tests that consistently use no carriage returns were
left unmodified as one can easily work around this.
It was introduced in commit eeb2cb05 along with the -F type=
change. Also fixed a typo in the name of the magic filename=
parameter. Tweaked tests 39 and 173 to better test this path.
are not, due mainly to the lack of support for XML character entities
(e.g. & => & ). This will make it easier to validate test files using
tools like xmllint, as well as edit and view them using XML tools.
A) Normal non-proxy HTTP:
- no more "Pragma: no-cache" (this only makes sense to proxies)
B) Non-CONNECT HTTP request over proxy:
- "Pragma: no-cache" is used (like before)
- "Proxy-Connection: Keep-alive" (for older style 1.0-proxies)
C) CONNECT HTTP request over proxy:
- "Host: [name]:[port]"
- "Proxy-Connection: Keep-alive"
formposts no longer include the path part. If you _really_ want them, you
must provide your preferred full file name with CURLFORM_FILENAME.
Added detection for libgen.h and basename() to configure. My custom
basename() replacement function for systems without it, might be a bit too
naive...
Updated 6 test cases to make them work with the stripped paths.
no fixed port numbers in use anymore. Starting now, the default ports the
servers use are 8990 - 8993. There's no option to modify these yet, but
changing the $base option in the top of the runtests.pl script.
