11 Description: OCaml library for writing HTTP servers
12 OCaml HTTP is a library for the Objective Caml programming language,
13 used to build simple HTTP servers, largely inspired to Perl's
16 In order to implement an HTTP servers the programmer has to provide a
17 daemon specification which contains, among other parameters, a callback
18 function invoked by OCaml HTTP on well formed HTTP requests received.
19 HTTP responses could be sent over an out_channel connected with client
20 socket, accessible from the callback.
22 The library contains also facility functions that helps in creating
23 well formed HTTP responses and a tiny HTTP client.
