get_list


Description:

public unowned string? get_list (string name)

Gets the value of header name in this.

Use this for headers whose values are comma-delimited lists, and which are therefore allowed to appear multiple times in the headers. For non-list-valued headers, use [method@MessageHeaders.get_one].

If name appears multiple times in this, [method@MessageHeaders.get_list] will concatenate all of the values together, separated by commas. This is sometimes awkward to parse (eg, WWW-Authenticate, Set-Cookie), but you have to be able to deal with it anyway, because the HTTP spec explicitly states that this transformation is allowed, and so an upstream proxy could do the same thing.

Parameters:

this

a MessageHeaders

name

header name

Returns:

the header's value or null if not found.
