If the server finds the request header the client sent acceptable it will return with a 100 Continue response and the client will then send the request body. Instead of waiting for a 100 Continue response Net::HTTP immediately sends the request body and ignores any 100 Continue responses. The current behavior defeats the purpose of the Expect: 100-continue value and the 100 Continue response code. If I am attempting to upload a large file like a photo and to a server that requires HTTP authentication I will have to wait until the upload is complete before I can retrieve a 401 response for incorrect authentication. I have attached a proposed patch that adds a continue timeout. Net::HTTP will wait up to the continue timeout before sending the request body. ---------------------------------------- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
