Is it safe to use HttpParser or is it internal API?

[kiminuo]

Hi,

https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore/blob/master/src/Servers/Kestrel/Core/src/Internal/Http/HttpParser.cs is marked as public but the namespace contains internal word.

Can I use the class in my project? Or the API may be removed?

Thanks

This is a so called "pubternal" type.
It's access modifier is public (dictated by the usage), but inside an "internal"-namespace, so it should be considered as being an internal-type / implementation detail which doesn't follow the contracts of public APIs.

That means you can use it, but at your own risk.
There may be breaking changes (remember: it's "internal").

You could use the code (not the binary) in your project if you follow the license, to guard yourself from the beforementioned points.
