New Post: HTTP Server Deployment

Hi andyczerwonka,

I'll add some more information beyond what jdiazdesico provided.

1. Yes the C++ REST SDK is mostly a client side focused library, we have a basic http_listener that we did some work on that you can take a look at. It currently is marked as 'Beta' and under the experimental namespace because we don't believe it has received enough attention and features to be considered complete.
2. The http_listener is a library only solution and doesn't have any integration with IIS. As jdiazdesico mentions it builds on top of the Windows HTTP server API, when on Windows. On other platforms it builds on top of Boost.
3. Our http_listener doesn't have support for any authentication.
4. On Windows HTTPS is supported, but not on other platforms right now.
   

All of this is obviously open source, and we accept contributions so if you want to add any more features let us know.

Steve
