Java class for embedded HTTP server in Swing app

Question

I wish to embed a very light HTTP server in my Java Swing app which just accepts requests, performs some actions, and returns the results.

Is there a very light Java

Answer 1

You said "very light" twice, so I think JLHTTP might be a good match for you. You can embed it as a single source file or a ~35K/50K jar file, yet it supports most functionality you'd need in an HTTP server out of the box.
