Thanks Azat! SeemsÂlibevhtp is preferred over libevent's http.

Will check out libevhtp.

You mean application design? I thought pipelining will be handled by library andÂ

request callback triggered in application.

Thanks,

Hi,

Well, libevent already have http server implementation, and also there
is libevhtp.

I don't sure about *full*, but it supports
- Host:
- Transfer-Encoding:chunked
- 100 Continue
- Some thing that I forgot to mention

I don't think that libevent *support* pipelining (a quick look at
bufferevent_{enable,disable}() at http.c).
As for stability of pipe lining it depends from implementations I guess.
