Http Namespace Reference

Detailed Description

The Nebula3 Http Subsystem

The Http subsystem offers a complete set of HTTP client- and server-classes. The HttpServer class implements simple but complete builtin HTTP server which can communicate with web browsers. The HttpServer is mainly used to expose runtime debugging data, but it can also be used for general HTTP communication with the Nebula3 application. A HtmlPageWriter class exists to simplify writing HTML-formatted pages to an IO::Stream. HttpRequestReader is a IO::StreamReader which can decode an HTTP request from a web browser. The HttpResponseWriter is a IO::StreamWriter which encodes a HTTP response with attached content (usually a HTML page or an image) into an IO::Stream.

HttpRequestHandler's process HTTP requests and create a content stream which is sent back to client web browsers. The HttpServer is extended with new functionality by deriving new subclasses from HttpRequestHandler and adding instances to the HttpServer.

To connect to a running Nebula3 application on the same machine, open a web browser and navigate to the following address:

http://127.0.0.1:2100

This should open the applications main page with links to specialized pages implemented by custom HttpRequestHandlers.
