RE: [Zope-dev] ZServer FastCGI patch for IRIX (and others?)

Below is a patch to let ZServer's FastCGI support work with FastCGI client implementations that don't properly close the STDIN sub-stream. On the IRIX/Apache/cgi-fcgi combo used where I work, the client side doesn't seem to know when it's done sending STDIN data, and thus the ZServer side simply hangs forever waiting for it. The patch below makes ZServer ignore STDIN altogether if there is no Content-Length, and also stop looking for more STDIN data if Content-Length or more bytes have already been read.

Thanks - I've checked this in. Brian Lloyd brian@digicool.com Software Engineer 540.371.6909 Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com
