Tasteful Server

Tasteful Server provides a mulithreaded server architecture for high performance network applications. It is written in C++ and uses the Qt library.

You can specify a number of servers with their own handlers. Those servers share a thread pool of user defined size to handle incoming data.

This library comes with a HTTP suite for handling incoming HTTP requests. You can pass your own callback to handle those completely preparsed requests with an object oriented interface. SSL for HTTPS is also supported.

Platform independency is provided through cmake-init. Currently supported platforms are:

• Windows
• Linux
• OS X

Features
