It is always safe to return MHD_YES.  MHD_NO must only be returned if the
connection must be closed due to a hard error, no HTTP error code is
generated.

 

I'm sorry, I meant "safe to just return MHD_YES", implying that whatever

processing I need to do for the response can be delayed, 

because I'm guaranteed to being called back at least one more time.

If method is "POST", and context is 0, create context

Else, if *upload_bytes is 0, prepare for end of request, create status

Else, do whatever you need to do for incoming data

Return MHD_YES
