Hello all, I am writing an MHD application where the MHD HTTP server acts as a proxy between a HTTP REST API and a different binary protocol on the backend. My MHD application opens a new TCP connection to the backend, translates the request, and waits for an answer.
The waiting on an answer part would normally be blocking, and reading the MHD manual I can't come up with a way of using async io here. What would an MHD application look like that creates response objects from (another) polling loop, and where do I even place this loop? I have been thinking of a variety of convoluted things with threads, then I figured it'd probably be better to ask the experts :) Thanks! - HP
