Enhancements to Mendelson Opensource

I am happy that Mendelson Opensouce is communicating with our trading partner!

To do so I had to modify MessageHttpUploader to include custom headers and override the value of existing headers. I had to change the value for the header "connection" from "close, TE" to "close" or my partner would close the connection without sending an HTTP response.

In the spirit of open source development I would like to make modifications to Mendelson Opensource that I would submit for inclusion in the next build.

I would like to add two additional fields, "Additional Headers" and "Override Headers", to the "Send" tab on the "Partner Configuration" dialog for remote stations. The new fields would be added to the Partner object and stored in the database.

Users would enter values in the fields in the format =&=. For example to get the results I need the "Additional Headers" field would have the value "customHeader1=A&customHeader2=B". The "Override Headers" field would have the value "connection=close".

I would modify MessageHttpUploader to send the custom header values and override existing headers with their replacement value.

Is this something you are willing to work on with me and get into the next build?
