URLFetcher::Create

[jam, 2011/10/25 17:16:20]

Done.

+//                                            URLFetcher::GET, this);
+//
+// Then, optionally set properties on this object, like the request context or
+// extra headers:
+//   fetcher->set_extra_request_headers("X-Foo: bar");
+//
+// Finally, start the request:
+//   fetcher->Start();
+//
+//
+// The object you supply as a delegate must inherit from
+// URLFetcherDelegate; when the fetch is completed,
+// OnURLFetchComplete() will be called with a pointer to the URLFetcher.  From
+// that point until the original URLFetcher instance is destroyed, you may use
+// accessor methods to see the result of the fetch. You should copy these
+// objects if you need them to live longer than the URLFetcher instance. If the
+// URLFetcher instance is destroyed before the callback happens, the fetch will
+// be canceled and no callback will occur.
+//
+// You may create the URLFetcher instance on any thread; OnURLFetchComplete()
+// will be called back on the same thread you use to create the instance.
+//
+//
+// NOTE: By default URLFetcher requests are NOT intercepted, except when
+// interception is explicitly enabled in tests.

I don't think this actually needs to be public. I think it's local to
url_fetcher.cc. I'd get rid of this.

[jam, 2011/10/25 17:16:20]

it's referenced below in GetResponseCode

Oh, good point. I just did a grep and no one's checking for this, heh. Maybe
it's better off just to use an enum set to -1. Whatever.

+    GET,
+    POST,
+    HEAD,
+  };
+
+  // |url| is the URL to send the request to.
+  // |request_type| is the type of request to make.
+  // |d| the object that will receive the callback on fetch completion.
