[jira] [Commented] (MESOS-274) Binary files over http endpoints.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-274?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13454435#comment-13454435 ] 

Benjamin Mahler commented on MESOS-274:
---------------------------------------

looking at the JSON RFC.. will probably just extend our current escaping rather than base64 encode
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4627.txt

> We don't encode the json file data we send over http. This is an issue for binary files.
> We need to encode file data in base64, and decode on the receiving end (webui, cpp tests). We have to do this because it's tricky to protect against reading binary files.
> This would also obviate the need to escape unicode (which was left as a TODO in json.hpp)
