基于libevent库实现的http server示例

最近在工作当中接触到libevent库，用于http server端功能还是比较强大，特在此记录一笔，以备后面查漏补缺。首先是下载安装，直接去官网下载对应版本的安装包，解压安装即可，这里就不啰嗦了。
　　 #tar
　　 #./configure
　　#make
　　#make install
　　完成安装之后，就可以开始编写自己的示例程序了，先上代码：

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <evhttp.h>
#include <event.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "event2/http.h"
#include "event2/event.h"
#include "event2/buffer.h"
#include "event2/bufferevent.h"
#include "event2/bufferevent_compat.h"
#include "event2/http_struct.h"
#include "event2/http_compat.h"
#include "event2/util.h"
#include "event2/listener.h"

#define BUF_MAX 1024*16

	size_t post_size = 0;
	
	post_size = evbuffer_get_length(req->input_buffer);//获取数据长度
	printf("====line:%d,post len:%d\n",__LINE__,post_size);
	if (post_size <= 0)
	{
		printf("====line:%d,post msg is empty!\n",__LINE__);
		return;
	}
	else

关于代码，相应的注释已经很清楚了，这里主要说明一下编译有关的问题，编译的时候需要引入libevent库相关的头文件目录，动态库路径和名称。
编译命令：gcc -o http_server http_server.c -I/usr/local/include/ -L/usr/local/lib/ -levent
-I/usr/local/include/ ：头文件路径
-L/usr/local/lib/ ：动态库路径
-levent ：动态库名称（libevent.so）

附get请求和post请求及处理结果，使用postman工具模拟发送http命令，
