[jira] Commented: (DIRMINA-234) Simple HTTP server based on Jakarta HttpComponents Core and MINA

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRMINA-234?page=comments#action_12458027 ] 
            
Cameron Taggart commented on DIRMINA-234:
-----------------------------------------


I saw the announcement about HttpCore 4.0-alpha3 and started reading through the documentation.  In the documentation I found a reference to MINA here:

http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-httpclient/HttpCoreNioApi

"In many ways HttpCore NIO is very similar to MINA. MINA API represents quite elegant and natural way of dealing with non-blocking I/O and anyone developing a event-driven I/O transport is bound to come up with a similar interface. There are several significant differences as well. HttpCore NIO reactor is minimalistic, bare-bone I/O multiplexer. HttpCore NIO does not and will not provide any buffering or threading primitives. It is meant to serve as an efficient asynchronous I/O transport for HttpCore and nothing else. Input/output buffering is meant to be implemented by data receiver / data transmitter respectively and development of threading primitives is entirely out of HttpCore scope.

If you are interested in supporting multiple protocols on top of a robust, flexible and well supported I/O transport mechanism please use MINA. HttpCore runs perfectly well on top of MINA. "

Does this mean that an HttpCore running on top of MINA exists?  I would also be interested is seeing a MINA based HttpClient.

> I am submitting my first cut at a HTTP server based on Jakarta HttpComponents Core and MINA for your review and feedback. This is a very simple but nonetheless a full-featured and HTTP/1.1 compliant HTTP file server that supports connection persistence, chunk coding, correctly handles older (HTTP/1.0) clients among many things. I believe this sample code makes evident that it takes fairly little code and effort to put the HttpCore protocol stack on top of MINA I/O model. 
> This version is still far from being perfect and am working on a more advanced version that integrates better with MINA's asynchronous I/O layer.
> Feedback, suggestions, critique will be hugely appreciated
