Thanks for replying, Nick. I probably cannot use libevhtp because it appears to be too small of a project to get company approval for my application. We worry about support and maintenance issues.
Does anyone have any other suggestions for an embedded http server/library that has multi-threaded support? I've been programming with libevent for a few weeks now and have really liked the interfaces and capabilities which makes it frustrating to hear that I won't be able to use the http capabilities because of its threading limitations. -Julian On Wed, Jun 27, 2012 at 8:37 PM, Nick Mathewson <ni...@freehaven.net> wrote: > On Wed, Jun 27, 2012 at 2:02 PM, Julian Bui <julian...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > QUESTIONS: > > -was evhttp meant to be used this way?
