HTTP server

disorder2k8 · 25-11-2010, 10:28 AM

So as some people here are aware, I'm a programmer and I've designed my own lightweight out of the box HTTP server. its very simple and totally free.

HTTP? That is everything based around a web page in simple terms. whenever you see a link that says http:// that is a link to a web page. you can have your own web page as a place for your own opinions without censorship.

With it you can point your friends to your own IP address and serve them news or files that you have set up to share. Its so easy you are already serving as soon as you run the program, and stop as soon as it closes. no fancy gimmicks or hidden nasties.

I'm looking for some people in the community to help me develop it further and add in features that they might be interested in.

The public beta is now ready so anyone who wants to help drop me a pm and I'll email you a zip with the program in. Anyone who helps me at this stage will be noted as official testers (if they wish).

Again this is a free community project so no money is being made.

Sounds interesting, I've PM'd you.

I am interested in some specification.
What language? And is it platform independent?

I can pentest it (security assessment) if you like

but you will need to provide the server.

Its in english as I am to. But other language options can be made available. It currently works for all windows versions as far as I'm aware. Not linux.

Other language versions of windows still need to be tested. I'm interested in how it handles characters with special marks in.

That's what I'm after, people trying to break or exploit it in a controlled environment. will pm you

Ah ok, the first one answered, win platform.
But what programming language did you use? C++ or managed .net?

oh yeah, windows sorry.

neither of those, delphi (aka pascal)

Ok, but is it managed delphi(.net) or native?So does the server need .net runtime, and if what version is it compiled against?

I did never like Borland, but delphi is a good language.

I'm not sure if its managed, its delphi rad studio 2010. one mo..

No it doesnt interact with .net.. for that you need ;Prisim which is the .net extension

Sounds like managed code to me then. Do you have to manage the heap by code, or other way round, can you open the compiled exe(dll) with Reflector?
Sorry, just curious, I simply like coding.

I'm not that hardcore lol, this is more my hobby. I used to do VB and sql/reports for a company a long time ago but that gave me a headache.

For most operations you don't have to manage any heaps. most classes are decendents of base classes and inherit everything from them including all low level ops. so a lot of top level stuff is handled automatically similar to vb object programming.

Yes, it seems .net managed based code then.

You should try reflector, base version is still free, its a reflection of the byte code/intermediate code which can reverse engineer unprotected managed apps. Code will be generated either in c#/vb or delphi.

Great tool for studying managed apps. Must have, if you ask me.
