Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] (ODATA-824) Header Content-Transfer-Encoding not used in HTTP
[ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-824?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Michael Pizzo updated ODATA-824: -------------------------------- Description: In Issue #823, applied to Errata 3 we cautioned clients and services that they should not rely on the Content-Transfer-Encoding header. This is to track removal of the required Content-Transfer-Encoding header in 4.1. Clients and services are allowed to continue to include the header, but if included it must have the value binary. was: In V4 we use the Header Content-Transfer-Encoding:binary together with the Content-Type: application/http in batch payloads (exactly as in V3 ) and in async responses. In HTTP 1.1 (http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec19.html#sec19.1 and https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-8.3.2) the media type application/http is defined "...Encoding considerations: HTTP messages enclosed by this type are in "binary" format; use of an appropriate Content-Transfer-Encoding is required when transmitted via E-mail." And in a section about differences between HTTP and MIME entities, the spec states (http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec19.html#sec19.4.5 and https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#appendix-A.5): "HTTP does not use the Content-Transfer-Encoding (CTE) field of RFC 2045.
