TECHNICALS
|
|
|
|
|
|
2024-09-12 17:58:33 +00:00
|
|
|
* Parsing is carried by a dedicated sub-library which I wrote named parslib.
|
|
|
|
|
* Mass string comparisons are carried by another dedicated sub-library which
|
|
|
|
|
I wrote named streecmp. It runs in O(n) time. n being the lenght of the string -
|
|
|
|
|
no matter the amount of strings you want to compare it against (I am indeed
|
|
|
|
|
aware it is nonetheless worse than hashtables - maybe one day I will implement
|
|
|
|
|
those on my own as well).
|
2024-09-17 16:49:01 +00:00
|
|
|
* After the connection is established with the upstream server, a relay loop
|
|
|
|
|
is started in which the client data is relayed to the server's socket and
|
|
|
|
|
server data is relayed to client's socket. This is highly inspired from
|
|
|
|
|
tinyproxy.

|
* HTTPs is achieved through CONNECT tunelling
