HTTP Message Length 消息长度

如下是HTTP协议中关于Message Length的英文原文：

4.4 Message Length

The transfer-length of a message is the length of the message-body as it appears in the message; that is, after any transfer-codings have been applied. When a message-body is included with a message, the transfer-length of that body is determined by one of the following (in order of precedence):

1.Any response message which “MUST NOT” include a message-body (such as the 1xx, 204, and 304 responses and any response to a HEAD request) is always terminated by the first empty line after the header fields, regardless of the entity-header fields present in the message.

2.If a Transfer-Encoding header field (section 14.41) is present and has any value other than “identity”, then the transfer-length is defined by use of the “chunked” transfer-coding (section 3.6), unless the message is terminated by closing the connection.

3.If a Content-Length header field (section 14.13) is present, its decimal value in OCTETs represents both the entity-length and the transfer-length. The Content-Length header field MUST NOT be sent if these two lengths are different (i.e., if a Transfer-Encoding

header field is present). If a message is received with both a
Transfer-Encoding header field and a Content-Length header field,
the latter MUST be ignored.

4.If the message uses the media type “multipart/byteranges”, and the transfer-length is not otherwise specified, then this self- delimiting media type defines the transfer-length. This media type MUST NOT be used unless the sender knows that the recipient can parse it; the presence in a request of a Range header with multiple byte- range specifiers from a 1.1 client implies that the client can parse multipart/byteranges responses.
