public Program()
{
SERVER_VERSION = Resource1.SERVER_VERSION;
this.port = 8080;
// start server
try
{
string ipAddress = "127.0.0.1";
IPAddress address = IPAddress.Parse(ipAddress);
this.server = EmbeddedServer.createInstance(this.port, address, new MyRequestHandler());
}
catch (Exception e)

Console.Error.WriteLine("Could not create Server " + e);
}
}
2) Modify the MyRequestHandler.cs to suit your needs
With no modifications you can begin serving static content of local files by putting them in the same directory or below and providing the proper path in the url.
Embedded Resources
You can serve embedded resources. To do this, add resources to your project. This can be done in Visual Studio or SharpDevelop by double clicking the file Resource1.resx. Once a resource is added, it can be accessed in the request handler.
For text resources change the text in red to match the resource name and the url:
if (url.Equals("/abc.xml"))
{
response.addContent(Resource1.ABC_dmp);
return response.responseOk();
}
For binary change the text in red to match the resource name and the url:
if (url.Equals("/favicon.ico"))
{
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
Resource1.favicon.Save(ms);
response.setBinaryContent(ms.ToArray());
return response.responseOk();
}
Cookies
To set a cookie
response.setCookie(strKey, strVal);
To read a cookie
if(cookies.ContainsKey("key"))
String val = cookies["key"];
3) Additional Mime types can be set in ServerConfig.cs
