The first steps taken are to assert on an empty / null path in the router.
I then considered a special handling for empty string as path, which would basically make it work like '/'.
But that would be quite an annoying change, but it could be potentially dangerous on update. So there's now an assert in
vibe.web.common.extractHTTPMethodAndName
.In addition, I realized that the web interface was using it, so I made the error message clearer. The change involved is quite trivial.
Note about unrelated changes: I (finally) set up editor config on my emacs. Which means everytime I save a file I edited, it is normalized to be conformant to the settings in
.editorconfig
, which is why there is so much noise.
