Description
-
Starts WEB server.
Return Type
-
None
Syntax
-
object.Start
The Start Method syntax has these parts:
| object |
An expression evaluating to an object
of type wodWebServer. |
Remarks
-
Method Start will make your WEB server 'alive'
and force it to:
- bind to your local port (default 80 for HTTP
protocols, and 443 for secure HTTPS protocol) on selected
interface
- listen for incoming connections
- set Activated property to True
- accept incoming connections
- create WebUser object for
each new connection, and fill in respective RemoteIP and
TimeConnected
properties
If you get an error when you call this method, usually
it will be related to inability of wodWebServer to bind and
listen on selected port. In such cases, check your running
applications if there is already some other server running
on same port.
Before starting server, you should setup several properties
that will determine behavior of your server, such
as Timeout,
ServerName,
Port.... Just
by leaving default values will make your server work as
expected, but in 'real life' you should choose your
own values for these properties.
To shutdown server, call Stop
method.
