   Provides a simple high-level Http server API, which can be used to build
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
    28
   embedded HTTP servers. Both "http" and "https" are supported. The API provides
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
    29
   a partial implementation of RFC <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">2616</a> (HTTP 1.1)
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
    30
   and RFC <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2818.txt">2818</a> (HTTP over TLS).
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
    31
   Any HTTP functionality not provided by this API can be implemented by application code
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
    32
   using the API.

   Programmers must implement the {@link com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpHandler} interface. This interface
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
    35
   provides a callback which is invoked to handle incoming requests from clients.
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:

    36
   A HTTP request and its response is known as an exchange. HTTP exchanges are
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
    37
   represented by the {@link com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpExchange} class.
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
    38
   The {@link com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpServer} class is used to listen for incoming TCP connections
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:
diff changeset
    39
   and it dispatches requests on these connections to handlers which have been
90ce3da70b43 Initial load
duke
parents:

    40
   registered with the server.

   <p>The example above creates a simple HttpServer which uses the calling

   Registering a handler with a HttpServer creates a {@link com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpContext} object and

   {@link com.sun.net.httpserver.Filter}

   For sensitive information, a {@link com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpsServer} can
90ce3da70b43 Initial load

   be used to process "https" requests secured by the SSL or TLS protocols.
90ce3da70b43 Initial load

    76
   A HttpsServer must be provided with a
90ce3da70b43 Initial load

   {@link com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpsConfigurator} object, which contains an

   HttpsConfigurator can be used to configure the
