             Summary: Consolidate functionality in stout/net and process/http
                 Key: MESOS-2763
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2763
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: libprocess, stout, technical debt
            Reporter: Bernd Mathiske
            Priority: Minor


stout/net.hpp and process/http.hpp offer overlapping functionality that could be consolidated in one place, presumably the latter, since it is more elaborate to begin with. This would also remove the dependency of the former on libcurl.

While we are at it, we could then turn net::contentLength() into a generalized, asynchronous process::http::head() call.

(Prerequisite: MESOS-2247, with the suggestion to enhance process::http, not stout, see a comment in that JIRA.)
