[Interest] 100 continue and QNetworkRequest/QNetworkReply

[Stanislav Kolář]

OK, but it in fact means that QNAM doesn't supports 100-continue as described in http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-8.2.3 :-(, so we cannot use it if (for example) we have 100MB data for upload and we don't want to upload entire 100MB buffer to the server if the result of the request is an error.

You don't do that. There's no option to ask QNAM to *send* 
	Expected: 100-continue

You asked if QNAM supports 100 Continue. It does: if the server sends it, we'll parse it correctly. We don't ever *ask* for it nor do we support waiting.

The feature is close to useless due to flaws in its design. We chose not to spend time on it.
