ne_set_useragent, ne_set_read_timeout, ne_set_connect_timeout, ne_get_scheme, ne_get_server_hostport — common properties for HTTP sessions

The User-Agent request header is used
to identify the software which generated the request for statistical
or debugging purposes. neon does not send a
User-Agent header unless a call is made to the
ne_set_useragent.
ne_set_useragent must be passed a product string
conforming to RFC2616's product token grammar; of the form
"Product/Version".
When neon reads from a socket, by default the read
operation will time out after 60 seconds, and the request will fail
giving an NE_TIMEOUT error. To configure this
timeout interval, call ne_set_read_timeout giving
the desired number of seconds as the timeout
parameter.
When a connection is being established to a server,
normally only the system's TCP timeout handling will apply.
To configure a specific (and probably shorter) timeout, the
ne_set_connect_timeout can be used,
giving the desired number of seconds as the
timeout parameter. If
0 is passed, then the default behaviour of
using the system TCP timeout will be used.
The scheme used to initially create the session will be
returned by ne_get_scheme.
The hostport pair with which the session is associated
will be returned by the
ne_get_server_hostport; for example
www.example.com:8080. Note that the
:port will be omitted if the default port
for the scheme is used.
