I am making a GET
request for JSON
data from a server that requires custom headers. The server responds with accurate response codes when I add the authentication header but fails during the custom header.
This -
[request addValue:utcDate forHTTPHeaderField:@"X-Custom-Date"];
causes the request to not receive a response from the server.
I can add the identical headers in a curl command and get a response so it is something particular to the NSMutableURLRequest
class.
Has anyone encounter this issue?

The HTTP header in the above question was copied from an PDF API document. Apparently it pasted in a character that is not displayed and caused the request to fail.
You can copy the above request line into a program like vi and you will find the additional character before the X.
I have been searching for a way to force Xcode to display ALL characters without success.
