The last argument of the callback is an output_channel connected to the HTTP client to which the user can write directly. 'timeout' parameter sets a timeout for each request processed by the daemon, if it's set to None, daemon waits forever for completed requests (use with care!), default is 5 minute. 'mode' parameter has 3 possible values: `Single means that all request are handled by the same process, `Fork means that each request is handled by a separate process, `Thread means that each request is handled by a separate thread, default is `Fork; 'root' (mnemonic "document root") is the directory where the daemon chdir before starting up, default is current working directory *) val start: ?addr: string -> ?port: int -> ?timeout: int option -> ?mode: Http_types.daemon_mode -> ?root: string -> (string -> (string * string) list -> out_channel -> unit) -> unit (** identical to 'start' above but callback receive two arguments, the second one is an out_channel as per 'start', but the secondo one is a Request.request object *) val start': ?addr: string -> ?port: int -> ?timeout: int option -> ?mode: Http_types.daemon_mode -> ?root: string -> (Http_types.request -> out_channel -> unit) -> unit (** Object oriented interface to HTTP daemons. @param addr address on which daemon will listen for connections @param port port which daemon will bind see {!
