public class GeneralHeader

extends Header

This class represents a general-header. GeneralHeaders apply to both RequestMessages and ResponseMessages. GeneralHeader names can be extended reliably only in combination with a change in the protocol version. However, new or experimental Headers may be given the semantics of GeneralHeaders if all parties in the communication recognize them to be GeneralHeaders. Unrecognized Headers are treated as EntityHeader.
