HttpClient definitely cannot do this since it implements the client side of
the arrangement.  There may be a bunch of useful parsing code in HttpClient,
but I'm sure you'll be able to find a complete solution somewhere and it
looks like one possibility has already shown up.

Of course, if your rudimentary socket server is working do you really want
to change it?

Subject: HttpClient - Use as a server


Question: Can HttpClient be used to build a tiny Web Server?  Yes, I know 
that is not the charter of the package.  However, I need to build a tiny Web

Server that accepts posts on a given port for some testing.  I built  a 
rudimentary socket server but I would like to use something with a little 
more abstraction and ran into HttpClient.

Thoughts?  If not HttpClient, anyone know an open source Java package that 
would provide the ability to build a minimal Web Server of off?
