It is quite common to see in configurations constructions like the
following one:
http-request set-var(txn.bodylen) 0
http-request set-var(txn.bodylen) req.hdr(content-length)
...
http-request set-header orig-len %[var(txn.bodylen)]
The set-var() rules are almost always duplicated when manipulating
integers or any other value that is mandatory along operations. This is
a problem because it makes the configurations complicated to maintain
and slower than needed. And it becomes even more complicated when several
conditions may set the same variable because the risk of forgetting to
initialize it or to accidentally reset it is high.
This patch extends the var() sample fetch function to take an optional
argument which contains a default value to be returned if the variable
was not set. This way it becomes much simpler to use the variable, just
set it where needed, and read it with a fall back to the default value:
http-request set-var(txn.bodylen) req.hdr(content-length)
...
http-request set-header orig-len %[var(txn.bodylen,0)]
The default value is always passed as a string, thus it will experience
a cast to the output type. It doesn't seem userful to complicate the
configuration to pass an explicit type at this point.
The vars.vtc regtest was updated accordingly.

The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. Please refer to the following files depending on what you're looking for : - INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install HAProxy - BRANCHES to understand the project's life cycle and what version to use - LICENSE for the project's license - CONTRIBUTING for the process to follow to submit contributions The more detailed documentation is located into the doc/ directory : - doc/intro.txt for a quick introduction on HAProxy - doc/configuration.txt for the configuration's reference manual - doc/lua.txt for the Lua's reference manual - doc/SPOE.txt for how to use the SPOE engine - doc/network-namespaces.txt for how to use network namespaces under Linux - doc/management.txt for the management guide - doc/regression-testing.txt for how to use the regression testing suite - doc/peers.txt for the peers protocol reference - doc/coding-style.txt for how to adopt HAProxy's coding style - doc/internals for developer-specific documentation (not all up to date)
