Java – HTTP request object

Is there an object in standard Java se that can accept HTTP requests from sockets? I've found how to create and send one, but I haven't found a way to retrieve HTTP objects from sockets I can create my own self, but I prefer to rely on strictly tested objects

Considering the structure of JSP, this seems easy to obtain

Solution

There is a small HTTP server in the Java 6 SDK (not sure whether it is in JRE or non sun JVM)

from http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/JDK-6/LightweightHTTPServer.htm Start:

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.net.InetSocketAddress;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Set;
import java.util.concurrent.Executors;

import com.sun.net.httpserver.Headers;
import com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpExchange;
import com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpHandler;
import com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpServer;

public class HttpServerDemo {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
    InetSocketAddress addr = new InetSocketAddress(8080);
    HttpServer server = HttpServer.create(addr,0);

    server.createContext("/",new MyHandler());
    server.setExecutor(Executors.newCachedThreadPool());
    server.start();
    System.out.println("Server is listening on port 8080" );
  }
}

class MyHandler implements HttpHandler {
  public void handle(HttpExchange exchange) throws IOException {
    String requestMethod = exchange.getRequestMethod();
    if (requestMethod.equalsIgnoreCase("GET")) {
      Headers responseHeaders = exchange.getResponseHeaders();
      responseHeaders.set("Content-Type","text/plain");
      exchange.sendResponseHeaders(200,0);

      OutputStream responseBody = exchange.getResponseBody();
      Headers requestHeaders = exchange.getRequestHeaders();
      Set<String> keySet = requestHeaders.keySet();
      Iterator<String> iter = keySet.iterator();
      while (iter.hasNext()) {
        String key = iter.next();
        List values = requestHeaders.get(key);
        String s = key + " = " + values.toString() + "\n";
        responseBody.write(s.getBytes());
      }
      responseBody.close();
    }
  }
}
