Qt4 Http Request Parser

Qt 4.4 introduces QNetworkRequest and QNetworkAccessManager to help you with your HTTP client request. But if you want parse an HTTP Request, because you're writing an HTTP server, it seems that there's nothing already done (comment here, if I've missed it).

So, this morning I've written a little class that help you with HTTP Request parse:

• static HttpRequest fromData (const QByteArray& data);
• static HttpRequest fromStream (QIODevice *buffer);

There's a couple of method that you can use to parse your request data, and some others method to retrieve headers, method type, url and body data.

Qt is used only for QHash, QByteArray and QIODevice classes, you've to implement all the "socket" logic, to handle your client request and response.
