Instances of the 'HTTP::Daemon' class are HTTP/1.1 servers that listen on a socket for incoming requests. The 'HTTP::Daemon' is a subclass of 'IO::Socket::IP', so you can perform socket operations directly on it too. Please note that 'HTTP::Daemon' used to be a subclass of 'IO::Socket::INET'. To support IPv6, it switched the parent class to 'IO::Socket::IP' at version 6.05. See IPv6 SUPPORT for details. The accept() method will return when a connection from a client is available. The returned value will be an 'HTTP::Daemon::ClientConn' object which is another 'IO::Socket::IP' subclass. Calling the get_request() method on this object will read data from the client and return an 'HTTP::Request' object. The ClientConn object also provide methods to send back various responses.
