<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I’m trying to parse events in C++ for an outbound
socket. The docs are a little contradictory, so I wonder if someone could
help me out.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>As I understand it and event is terminated with double LF’s
(\n\n) However if there is a </span></font><span lang=EN>Content-Length
header the wiki very confusingly says <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN
style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN
style='font-size:12.0pt'>‘Content-Length is the length of the event
beginning <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>AFTER</span></b> the very next LF
only line ("\n") and <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>inclusive</span></b>
the trailing LF/LF pair ("\n\n")’<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN
style='font-size:12.0pt'>BUT the example says it’s after the \n\n in the
header!! Which is it?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN
style='font-size:12.0pt'>In addition, it also looks like the event body is also
terminated by a \n\n. If this is the case, why do I care about content
length value, can’t I simply read until I get the termination sequence?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
