     * Parses a header value into elements.
     * Parse errors are indicated as {@code RuntimeException}.
     * 

* Some HTTP headers (such as the set-cookie header) have values that * can be decomposed into multiple elements. In order to be processed * by this parser, such headers must be in the following form: *

*
     * header  = [ element ] *( "," [ element ] )
     * element = name [ "=" [ value ] ] *( ";" [ param ] )
     * param   = name [ "=" [ value ] ]
     *
     * name    = token
     * value   = ( token | quoted-string )
     *
     * token         = 1*<any char except "=", ",", ";", <"> and
     *                       white space>
     * quoted-string = <"> *( text | quoted-char ) <">
     * text          = any char except <">
     * quoted-char   = "\" char
     * 
*

* Any amount of white space is allowed between any part of the * header, element or param and is ignored. A missing value in any * element or param will be stored as the empty {@link String}; * if the "=" is also missing null will be stored instead. *

*

* Note that this parser does not apply to list-typed HTTP header fields in * general; it is only suitable for fields that use the syntax described * above. Counter-examples are "Link" (RFC 8288), "If-None-Match" (RFC 7232) * or "Dav" (RFC 4918). *

* * @param buffer buffer holding the header value to parse * @param cursor the parser cursor containing the current position and * the bounds within the buffer for the parsing operation * * @return an array holding all elements of the header value * * @throws ParseException in case of a parsing error */ HeaderElement[] parseElements( CharArrayBuffer buffer, ParserCursor cursor) throws ParseException; /** * Parses a single header element. * A header element consist of a semicolon-separate list * of name=value definitions. * * @param buffer buffer holding the element to parse * @param cursor the parser cursor containing the current position and * the bounds within the buffer for the parsing operation * * @return the parsed element * * @throws ParseException in case of a parse error */ HeaderElement parseHeaderElement( CharArrayBuffer buffer, ParserCursor cursor) throws ParseException; /** * Parses a list of name-value pairs. * These lists are used to specify parameters to a header element. * Parse errors are indicated as {@code ParseException}. * * @param buffer buffer holding the name-value list to parse * @param cursor the parser cursor containing the current position and * the bounds within the buffer for the parsing operation * * @return an array holding all items of the name-value list * * @throws ParseException in case of a parse error */ NameValuePair[] parseParameters( CharArrayBuffer buffer, ParserCursor cursor) throws ParseException; /** * Parses a name=value specification, where the = and value are optional. * * @param buffer the buffer holding the name-value pair to parse * @param cursor the parser cursor containing the current position and * the bounds within the buffer for the parsing operation * * @return the name-value pair, where the value is {@code null} * if no value is specified */ NameValuePair parseNameValuePair( CharArrayBuffer buffer, ParserCursor cursor) throws ParseException; }
