Am I a user or a developer?

[David Taylor-19]

Hi! First post.

I have found and studied the Grinder and am very impressed.

My proposed use of the Grinder is to "borrow" the TCPProxy code for my own
purposes.  Basically I would like to be able to proxy both HTTP and HTTPS
and time the sessions.

The content of the requests and responses is not really primary, in fact the
messages could be left encrypted if that is possible. The time to initial
response and repeated replayed responses is what is important.

It seems to me that I can "record" the requests and responses via the
ConnectionHandler class by bottlenecking at the requestFinished() method. Is
there any guide available about how to implement the ConnectionHandler
class?

I can start by changing the ConnectionHandlerImplementation code but I would
like to make sure that such as use is permitted and whether I should direct
subsequent messages to this "use" list or the "developer" list.

Thanks.

David

Yes, such use is permitted - see the LICENSE file for details.

There isn't much developer-focussed docs, but the Javadoc is pretty
good. The modification you suggest will work, or you could simple
implement a pair of cooperating TCPProxyFilters, and use the
-requestfilter and -responsefilter switches. In this way, you woudn't
nee to modify the standard code.

The development list is the place to discuss things that aren't of
interest (or yet available) to the average user, so I've set follow-ups
to  there.
