Web Server Application

Description

This is a simple Apache-like multithreaded web server written in Java. It handles a subset of HTTP.

Milestones / Specifications

• 1. Read, and store, standard configuration files for use in responding to client requests
• 2. Parse HTTP Requests
• 3. Generate and send HTTP Responses (this involves many possible code paths, and is probably the most significant implementation step)
• 4. Respond to multiple simultaneous requests through the use of threads
• 5. Execute server side processes to handle server side scripts
• 6. Support simple authentication
• 7. Support simple caching
• 8. Logging
