Description
In this course we will design a multi-threaded HTTP web server in C++ using socket programming in Linux. at the end of this course the student will have a good grasp of system programming and also:1. how HTTP web server processes file request from clients in c++.2. How the server can handle multiple accept request and concurrent connections using multi-threading in c++. 3. How uploaded files are received , assembled and stored on the server and how the server sends requested file back to the client in c++.4. how the server receives request and differentiates the different types of request (GET, POST) in c++5. how to fetch and store GET DATA, POST DATA and COOKIES on the server in c++.6. You also learn about multi-threading using POSIX thread and how semaphores are used to apply lock in c++.7. the difference between a web server , chat server, and other types of servers in c++. 8. How to implement networking library functions like accept(), bind(), listen(), socket() in c++9. How the server accesses IP address of the client using the inet ntop() function in c++. 10. Learn System programming- how to use system calls in Linux, here we used the OPEN system call in c++. 11. Learn System programming- File handling , how to create, read, write , receive and send files in Linux in c++.
