which embedded web server to use for my app GUI [closed]

Question

I'm writing an application in c++ and I was thinking to use an embedded simple web server that will be my gui, so i could set up my application port on localhost.

What such web server would you recommend to use in c++/c?

Thanks

Answer 1

If you are using boost then rolling your own in boost:asio is simple.

I assume by embedded you mean a built in webserver not that you are running on some tiny embedded hardware.

If you want something simpler look at mongoose - also see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/738273/open-source-c-c-embedded-web-server

Answer 2

I use C++ Wt for these kind of interfaces

Answer 3

You are aware that a lot of machines already run something on port 80/443, are you? [edit] Controlling an embedded system sounds like a good fit for snmp, not http.
