Create a functional HTTP/1.0 server

[Rasheed]

Hi All,
i have to Create a functional HTTP/1.0 server. Server will be
hosting files which on request by client should be transferred to
them.

so can any body tell me how to start this.


i did some R & D on Winhttp functionality.


ms-help://MS.MSDNQTR.v80.en/MS.MSDN.v80/MS.WIN32COM.v10.en/winhttp/
http/winhttpreceiveresponse.htm


but it seems like a perticular URL checking.


but i have to create a HTTP Server and Server will be hosting files
which on request by client should be transferred to them. so can any
body help me out.


regards,
Rasheed.

Rasheed,

WinInet and WinHTTP are both client-side HTTP implementations, with WinInet
being user interactive and WinHTTP being newer technology for
non-interactive services. And, of course, this is a WinInet newsgroup.

You might want to look at the HTTP Server API:

Or you might want to use System.net in .NET framework. Most of the
facility/infrastructure is already there for you.

I would use the TcpListener to start off with.

With all my respect to .NET, I still continue to think that implementing a
wheel using "template for implementing the wheels" would be still overhead.

Seems like Paul already pointed out that wininet is wrong direction to solve
your problem. Why do you need to reinvent the wheel? Why don't you want to
use apache for example?
