SWServer

SWServer Version 1.2

SWServer is a simple Web server written in Java. In order to run it, you need the Java Runtime Environment (JRE 1.2) (SWServer is compiled with Java 1.1.6 though). SWServer features options to delay transfer of files and/or to lower the speed of file transfer, to simulate the low performance modem connection of most Web surfers. If you develop your Web pages in your local machine, SWServer may be a helpful little tool for you to test your Web pages in a simulated modem line environment, without requiring you to upload your Web pages to your Web host. Although SWServer does not currently support advanced Web server features like CGI, it supports resumable file download.

Usage: SWServer [options] <home directory> [<default HTML>]
E.g. : SWServer -delay=500 -speed=28.8 c:/TLHome index.html
Keys : <home directory>: the home directory of your Web site.
       <default HTML>: the default HTML file.
       [options]: -verbose       -- verbose mode
                  -port=<#>      -- port to use
                  -delay=<#>     -- delay (in ms) before tranfer file
                  -speed=<#>     -- transfer speed (in K bits/s)
                  -keepalive=<#> -- keep-alive timeout (in s)
                  -buffer=<#>    -- tranfer buffer size (in bytes)

When SWServer starts, it will display the settings like:

SWServer (Simple Web Server) V1.2 -- By Trevor Lee, Wing Sang

HOME DIRECTORY: c:/TLHome
DEFAULT FILE: index.html
VERBOSE: false
KEEP ALIVE: NOT ALLOWED
TRANSFER DELAY: 500ms
TRANSFER SPEED: 28.8 Kbits/s
TRANSFER BUFFER SIZE: 10240 bytes
TRANSFER BUFFER DELAY: 3472ms
LOCAL: tlmachine/123.456.79.90  PORT: 80

started...

The line LOCAL shows your machine name (and the IP address). The address of your simple Web site will then be like, say, http://tlmachine. Alternatively, you can always use http://localhost to access the Web site setup in your local machine. Please note that if you specify any port other than 80, say 2048, you will usually need to append your URL with the port number like http://tlmachine:2048.
