This is a simple demo of the HTTP server facilities, providing a simple
body and the three documented server instantiations.
---+ The server main programs are:
$ demo_threads.pl :
Run threaded server. Requires SWI-Prolog with thread-support.
The server is started at port 3000 using server/0. server/2
allows to specify options. tm/0 provides a graphical display
of the runing threads. See source-file.
$ demo_xpce.pl :
Run XPCE-based event-driven server. Requires XPCE. Use
?- server(3000). to start the server at port 3000.
$ demo_inetd :
To install this, adjust the first line of this file to point
to the installed Prolog executable and add the following line
to /etc/inetd.conf (adjust as needed):
4001 stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/lib/pl-5.1.4/library/http/demo/demo_inetd
---+ Session management demo:
$ calc.pl :
Multi-threaded server with session management using the
html_write.pl library. See source for usage.
---+ File serving demo:
$ demo_files.pl :
Is a multi-threaded server that serves static files and
directory indices.
---+ Client demo
$ demo_client.pl :
Simple multi-threaded client to test the server under
different conditions. Requires SWI-Prolog with thread-support.
See source for usage.
---+ Performance testing
A very early start of some routines to validate the server platform.
Eventually, stress_server.pl will serve different tests from multiple
locations and stress_client.pl will contain client code to run
individual tests as well as doing multi-threaded tests.
$ stress_server.pl :
Server platform.
$ stress_client.pl :
Client.
