Web server for Objective-C

Ho开发者_开发技巧w can I create a webserver from my Obj-C app, and post custom HTML to it?

Thanks!

Check:
SimpleHTTPServer
CocoaHTTPServer

To embed a lightweight HTTP server in iOS or Mac apps, check out GCDWebServer which has a modern and clean architecture designed on top of Grand Central Dispatch.

It would most likely be easier and far more secure to use something like FastCGI and then use an existing HTTP server such as Nginx to serve the HTML that your app passes along rather than trying to embed an HTTP server directly in your application. Plus Nginx is extremely fast and can handle huge server traffic without really breaking a sweat which not all other HTTP servers can say.

Plus using an embedded server means that your app and your HTTP server must run under the same UID which is bad from a security perspective as anyone compromising the HTTP server gains access to all your website files as well.
