What are the roles of the internal/embedded HTTP
server? |
|
Solution |
The internal/embedded HTTP server serves two purposes:
1. It allows a programmer to test code running on the application server
without installing an external HTTP server.
2. It lets the plug-in communicate with the application server via HTTP
protocol.
The built-in HTTP server should not be accessed directly by end-users in
production mode because it lacks some of the features that the external
HTTP servers provide, like caching. |
