public class HttpConnector
extends TcpConnector

HttpConnector provides a way of receiving and sending http requests and responses. The Connector itself handles dispatching http requests. The HttpMessageReceiver handles the receiving requests and processing of headers This endpoint recognises the following properties -

• hostname - The hostname to send and receive http requests
• port - The port to listen on. The industry standard is 80 and if this propert is not set it will default to 80
• proxyHostname - If you access the web through a proxy, this holds the server address
• proxyPort - The port the proxy is configured on
• proxyUsername - If the proxy requires authentication supply a username
• proxyPassword - If the proxy requires authentication supply a password
