It's a small server (http) so I don't wait for any reply from the

close connection when data is sent.
So on server side i should write:
if (httpRequest.isCompleted)
{
// Parsing request headers
[... omitted ...]
// Build http reply
[... omitted ...]
socket.send(reply);
socket.shutdown(SocketShutdown.BOTH);
}
and then wait for client to close connection?
Almost. If the client sends additional data which you do not read above,
then shutdown(BOTH) may cause a "connection aborted" error on the client
end. Ideally you want to shutdown(SEND) only, then loop reading all
remaining data from the socket (until receive returns 0), then call
close().
I've just looked at std.socket and I can't see a nice easy way to call
select on just the one/current socket.. I was expecting
socket.select(READ|WRITE|EXCEPT) helper functions or similar :(
