/*
* Examining the Mini Web Server
*
* Server sockets use the ServerSocket object rather than the Socket object that
* client sockets use. There are several constructors available with the
* ServerSocket object. The simplest constructor accepts only the port number on
* which the program should be listening. Listening refers to the mode that a
* server is in while it waits for clients to connect. The following lines of
* code are used in Listing 1.3 to create a new ServerSocket object and reserve
* port 80 as the port number on which the web server should listen for
* connections:
*
* try {
* // create the main server
* socket s = new ServerSocket(80);
* }
* catch(Exception e) {
* System.out.println("Error: " + e );
* return;
* }
*
* The try block is necessary because any number of errors could occur when the
* program attempts to register port 80. The most common error that would result
* is that there is already a server listening to port 80 on this machine.
* Warning
*
* This program will not work on a machine that already has a web server, or
* some other program, listening on port 80.
*
* Once the program has port 80 registered, it can begin listening for
* connections. The following line of code is used to wait for a connection:
*
* Socket remote = s.accept();
*
* The Socket object that is returned by accept is exactly the same class that
* is used for client sockets. Once the connection is established, the
* difference between client and server sockets fade. The primary difference
* between client and server sockets is the way in which they connect. A client
* sever connects to something. A server socket waits for something to connect
* to it.
*
* The accept method is a blocking call, which means the current thread will
* wait for a connection. This can present problems for your program if there
* are other tasks it would like to accomplish while it is waiting for
* connections. Because of this, it is very common to see the accept method call
* placed in a worker thread. This allows the main thread to carry on other
* tasks, while the worker thread waits for connections to arrive.
*
* Once a connection is made, the accept method will return a socket object for
* the new socket. After this point, reading and writing is the same between
* client and server sockets. Many client server programs would create a new
* thread to handle this new connection.
*
* Now that a connection has been made, a new thread could be created to handle
* it. This new worker thread would process all the requests from this client in
* the background, which allows the ServerSocket object to wait for and service
* more connections. However, the example program in Listing 1.3 does not
* require such programming. As soon as the socket is accepted, input and output
* objects are created; this same process was used with the SMTP client. The
* following lines from Listing 1.3 show the process of preparing the newly
* accepted socket for input and output:
*
* //remote is now the connected socket
* System.out.println("Connection, sending data.");
* BufferedReader in
* = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(remote.getInputStream()) );
* PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(remote.getOutputStream());
*
* Now that the program has input and output objects, it can process the HTTP
* request. It first reads the HTTP request lines. A full-featured server would
* parse each line and determine the exact nature of this request, however, our
* ultra-simple web server just reads in the request lines and ignores them, as
* shown here:
*
* //read the data sent. We basically ignore it,
* //stop reading once a blank line is hit. This
* //blank line signals the end of the
* //client HTTP headers.
* String str=".";
* while(!str.equals(""))
* str = in.readLine();
*
* These lines cause the server to read in lines of text from the newly
* connected socket. Once a blank line (which indicates the end of the HTTP
* header) is reached, the loop stops, and the server stops reading. Now that
* the HTTP header has been retrieved, the server sends an HTTP response. The
* following lines of code accomplish this:
*
* //Send the response
* //Send the headers out.println("HTTP/1.0 200 OK");
* out.println("Content-Type: text/html");
* out.println("Server: Bot");
* //this blank line signals the end of the headers out.println("");
* // Send the HTML page out.println( " <H1> Welcome to the Ultra Mini-WebServer </H2> ");
*
* Status code 200, as shown on line 3 of the preceding code, is used to show
* that the page was properly transferred, and that the required HTTP headers
* were sent. (Refer to Chapter 2 for more information about HTTP headers.)
* Following the HTTP headers, the actual HTML page is transferred. Once the
* page is transferred, the following lines of code from Listing 1.3 are
* executed to clean up:
*
* out.flush(); remote.close();
*
* The flush method is necessary to ensure that all data is transferred, and the
* close method is necessary to close the socket. Although Java will discard the
* Socket object, it will not generally close the socket on most platforms.
* Because of this, you must close the socket or else you might eventually get
* an error indicating that there are no more file handles. This becomes very
* important for a program that opens up many connections, including one to a
* spider.
