perl-HTTP-Daemon

a simple http server class

Instances of the 'HTTP::Daemon' class are HTTP/1.1 servers that listen on a socket for incoming requests. The 'HTTP::Daemon' is a subclass of 'IO::Socket::INET', so you can perform socket operations directly on it too. The accept() method will return when a connection from a client is available. The returned value will be an 'HTTP::Daemon::ClientConn' object which is another 'IO::Socket::INET' subclass. Calling the get_request() method on this object will read data from the client and return an 'HTTP::Request' object. The ClientConn object also provide methods to send back various responses.
