@Header(value="Accept-Ranges")
public final class AcceptRanges
extends HeaderString

Represents a parsed Accept-Range HTTP response header.

What partial content range types this server supports via byte serving.

Example

Accept-Ranges: bytes

RFC2616 Specification

The Accept-Ranges response-header field allows the server to indicate its acceptance of range requests for a resource:

Accept-Ranges = "Accept-Ranges" ":" acceptable-ranges acceptable-ranges = 1#range-unit | "none"

Origin servers that accept byte-range requests MAY send...

Accept-Ranges: bytes

...but are not required to do so.

Clients MAY generate byte-range requests without having received this header for the resource involved.

Range units are defined in section 3.12.

Servers that do not accept any kind of range request for a resource MAY send...

Accept-Ranges: none

...to advise the client not to attempt a range request.
