SUMMARY ======= This sample demonstrates how to create a simple HTTP server using the HTTP API, v2. It does this using the system thread pool. Threads within the thread pool receives I/O completions from the specified HTTPAPI request queue. They process these by calling the callback function according to the I/O context. As an example, we send back an HTTP response to the specified HTTP request. If the request was valid, the response will include the content of a file as the entity body. Security Note ============= This sample is provided for educational purpose only to demonstrate how to use Windows HTTP API, v2. It is not intended to be used without modifications in a production environment and it has not been tested in a production environment. Microsoft assumes no liability for incidental or consequential damages should the sample code be used for purposes other than as intended. USAGE ===== This sample includes Microsoft Visual Studio .NET project files. To create AsynchronousHTTPServerApp.exe, load AsynchronousHTTPServerApp.sln and build the project. To run the sample: C:>AsynchronousHTTPServerApp.exe <Url> <ServerDirectory> where: <Url> is the Url base this sample will listen for. The URL must not have a query element. <ServerDirectory> is the local directory to map incoming requested Url to. Note that this path should not include a trailing slash. Example: C:>AsynchronousHTTPServerApp.exe http://*:80/ C:\httpsrv C:>AsynchronousHTTPServerApp.exe http://localhost:8080/ D:\inetpub\repository SOURCE FILES ============= main.c handler.c common.h AsynchronousHTTPServerApp.vcproj AsynchronousHTTPServerApp.sln SEE ALSO ========= For more information on HTTP.sys APIs, go to: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa364510(VS.85).aspx ================================== © Microsoft Corporation
