Small Embeddable HTTP Server Library
GNU libmicrohttpd is a small C library that is supposed to make it easy to run an HTTP server as part of another application. GNU libmicrohttpd is free software and part of the GNU project. Key features that distinguish libmicrohttpd from other projects are:
* C library: fast and small
* API is simple, expressive and fully reentrant
* Implementation is http 1.1 compliant
* HTTP server can listen on multiple ports
* Support for IPv6
* Support for incremental processing of POST data
* Creates binary of only 30k (without TLS/SSL support)
* Three different threading models
* Supported platforms include GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, OS X, W32, Symbian and z/OS
* Optional support for SSL3 and TLS (requires libgcrypt)
libmicrohttpd was started because the author needed an easy way to add a concurrent HTTP server to other projects. Existing alternatives were either non-free, not reentrant, standalone, of terrible code quality or a combination thereof. Do not use libmicrohttpd if you are looking for a standalone http server, there are many other projects out there that provide that kind of functionality already. However, if you want to be able to serve simple WWW pages from within your C or C++ application, check it out.

- remove dependency on gpg-offline, source validator already
does that
- Version bump to 0.9.34:
* Drop tls patch seems to build fine
* Remove code for other distros we build against 13.1+ anywhere
within obs and it just clutters the spec.
* Explicitely name switches in configure to make sure things go
the desired way.
* Fix install of libmicrohttpspdy pc file.
+ Added support for TCP FASTOPEN.
+ Removed dependency on plibc for simpler compilation for W32.
+ Added configure option "--disable-pipes" to use socketpairs
instead of pipes for signalling to child threads. Pipes are
always disabled on W32.
+ Corrected some uses of 'int' vs. 'size_t'.
+ MHD_USE_DUAL_STACK in libmicrohttpd currently just *inhibits
setting* the IPV6_V6ONLY socket option, but per Microsoft's
documentation the default on Windows is that this is enabled, thus
MHD_USE_DUAL_STACK will not work (since it leaves the
default). libmicrohttpd should probably just unconditionally set
IPV6_V6ONLY to the desired value when the option is available.
+ Allow Keep-Alive with HTTP 1.0 (if explicitly requested),
and automatically set "Connection: Keep-Alive" in response
in this case as well.
+ Adding explicit annotations to hide symbols that are not for
export in the C code (gcc 4.0 or higher only).
+ Adding a few lines to avoid warnings from picky compilers.
- Added patches:
* libmicrohttpd-0.9.34-spdy-pc.patch
