1) The return messages were being wrongly populated with the names of asset, inventory and sale types when their corresponding integers should have been used instead.
2) Folders with links were including the linked items in the descendents figure, when only the links should be included.
3) Links and linked items in link folders were not being included in the return data, and not in the correct order.
Now that these issues have been addressed, outfits and attachments appear to work consistently when HTTP inventory is enabled (as is now the default).
Not yet enabled by default. You can enable this by setting Cap_FetchInventory2 = "localhost" in the [ClientStack.LindenCaps] section of OpenSim.ini
Enabling both FetchInventory2 and FetchInventoryDescendents2 improves the situation with properly fetching attachments and hud objects
Probably because viewers are never expecting the odd situation where FetchInventoryDescendents2 is present but not FetchInventory2
However, for some reason attachments and hud objects occasionally fail to appear, though their status is correct in inventory
For attachments, focussing on the avatar makes them appear. Hud objects have to be reattached.
This is required for the substitution of different HTTP servers or the newer HttpServer.dll without having to commit to a particular implementation.
This is also required to write regression tests that involve the HTTP layer.
If you need to recompile, all you need to do is replace OSHttpRequest/OSHttpResponse references with IOSHttpRequest/IOSHttpResponse.
Enabling this by setting Cap_FetchInventoryDescendents2 = "localhost" in the [ClientStack.LindenCaps] section of OpenSim.ini downloads inventory via http rather than udp in later viewers.
