I had never thought about this use "embedded server" use-case.
You were looking at the right part of the code (there are two files
though, PosixMain and WinMain, which contain a bit of copy and paste
code). They could be encapsulated in an embeddable 'WServer' class
like you suggest, which is then simply used by WRun(). This WServer
class would be public API, but only implemented for the builtin-http
(and not for the fastcgi connector).
One limitation currently is that since Wt expects only one 'server'
per application, it uses a number of static data structures, so you
would only be able to instantiate a single WServer class (with the
current implementation, but that could be changed in the future with
some reorganisation in the code).
Unless you feel inclined to implement it, I will add it (to the bottom
of) my TODO list?

koen
