// Important notice to those implementing custom asynchronous and/or chunked responses:
// 
// HTTPConnection supports asynchronous responses.  All you have to do in your custom response class is
// asynchronously generate the response, and invoke HTTPConnection's responseHasAvailableData method.
// You don't have to wait until you have all of the response ready to invoke this method.  For example, if you
// generate the response in incremental chunks, you could call responseHasAvailableData after generating
// each chunk.  You MUST invoke the responseHasAvailableData method on the proper thread/runloop.  That is,
// the thread/runloop that the HTTPConnection is operating in.  Please see the HTTPAsyncFileResponse class
// for an example of how to properly do this.
// 
// The normal flow of events for an HTTPConnection while responding to a request is like this:
// - Get data from response via readDataOfLength method.
// - Add data to asyncSocket's write queue.
// - Wait for asyncSocket to notify it that the data has been sent.
// - Get more data from response via readDataOfLength method.
// ... continue this cycle until it has sent the entire response.
// 
// With an asynchronous response, the flow is a little different.  When HTTPConnection calls your
// readDataOfLength method, you may or may not have any available data.  If you don't, then simply return nil.
// You should later invoke HTTPConnection's responseHasAvailableData when you have data to send.
// 
// You don't have to keep track of when you return nil in the readDataOfLength method, or how many times you've invoked
// responseHasAvailableData. Just simply call responseHasAvailableData whenever you've generated new data, and
// return nil in your readDataOfLength whenever you don't have any available data in the requested range.
// HTTPConnection will automatically detect when it should be requesting new data and will act appropriately.
// 
// It's important that you also keep in mind that the HTTP server supports range requests.
// The setOffset method is mandatory, and should not be ignored.
// Make sure you take into account the offset within the readDataOfLength method.
// You should also be aware that the HTTPConnection automatically sorts any range requests.
// So if your setOffset method is called with a value of 100, then you can safely release bytes 0-98.
// 
// HTTPConnection can also help you keep your memory footprint small.
// Imagine you're dynamically generating a 10 MB response.  You probably don't want to load all this data into
// RAM, and sit around waiting for HTTPConnection to slowly send it out over the network.  All you need to do
// is pay attention to when HTTPConnection requests more data via readDataOfLength.  This is because HTTPConnection
// will never allow asyncSocket's write queue to get much bigger than READ_CHUNKSIZE bytes.  You should
// consider how you might be able to take advantage of this fact to generate your asynchronous response on demand,
// while at the same time keeping your memory footprint small, and your application lightning fast.
// 
// If you don't know the content-length in advanced, you should also implement the isChunked method.
// This means the response will not include a Content-Length header, and will instead use "Transfer-Encoding: chunked".
// There's a good chance that if your response is asynchronous, it's also chunked.
