Welcome!

This is example of MCUXpresso SDK HTTP server application using MCUXpresso SDK lwIP and FreeRTOS.

Server description

Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server is a simple web server that handles, evaluates, and responses to HTTP requests. Depending on the configuration and incoming client requests, it returns static file system content (web pages, style sheets, images...) or content dynamically generated by callback routines. The server supports HTTP protocol Version 1.0 defined by RFC 1945 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1945).

Server creates a separate task and an internal data structure for every incoming connection from the client (this is called session in further text). When the session processing is done (a response is sent to the client) and keep-alive option is disabled, the connection from the client is closed and the session is destroyed. In case keep-alive is enabled the connection remains open and the server waits for another request from the client.
