RESTful webservice hosted on iPhone

My question is, Is there a way to host RESTful webservice on iPhone? This is possible in java based mobile.

RESTful Web Services Implementations in Mobile Devices

EDIT: I want to host an开发者_运维问答d consume RESTful web services from/within different mobile devices. I cant use socket for my project.

I normally use ASIHTTPRequest for webservice on iPhone, it supports RESTful. Give it a try, I am sure you will like it.

You'll want to check out something like this:

Or, implement your own HTTP server on iOS (I suppose).

It's definitely possible.
