26 Description: simple http server class
27 Instances of the HTTP::Daemon class are HTTP/1.1 servers that listen on a
28 socket for incoming requests. The HTTP::Daemon is a subclass of
29 IO::Socket::INET, so you can perform socket operations directly on it too.
31 The accept() method will return when a connection from a client is available.
32 The returned value will be an HTTP::Daemon::ClientConn object which is
33 another IO::Socket::INET subclass. Calling the get_request() method on this
34 object will read data from the client and return an HTTP::Request object. The
35 ClientConn object also provide methods to send back various responses.
37 This HTTP daemon does not fork(2) for you. Your application, i.e. the user of
38 the HTTP::Daemon is responsible for forking if that is desirable. Also note
39 that the user is responsible for generating responses that conform to the
