I’m wondering what web server people are using with uClinux?
People are using a lot of different web servers: - µWeb built-in web server - fnord - busybox httpd - mini_httpd - thttpd - even boa!
I need to have web pages for my board update when some I/O changes on the board. I know I can use http request from a browser to query the status of I/O via a CGI program but I was wondering if anyone has found a way to just update a page when some event happens on the board like I/O inputs changing?
HTTP requests are always initiated from the client side. The only way you can achieve the appearance of asynchronous responses from the server is via polling, with all the attendant downsides. One approach is to use AJAX as a way of minimising the polling traffic, but it is still polling.
