Qt Http implementation

[ada10]

I would like to use the QHttp class for my http server implementation. But the documentation for qt 4.6 says its obsolete. Is there any other class which I can use for my use-case ?

From the QHttp docs:

However, for new applications, it is recommended to use QNetworkAccessManager and QNetworkReply, as those classes possess a simpler, yet more powerful API and a more modern protocol implementation.

You perhaps want to look at QTcpServer for the server side of the equation though.

Try QTcpSocket, QNetworkAccessManager or QTcpServer.

I would like to allow the client to download files from such a server ... will qtcpserver be helpful for this ?

[ChrisW67]

If your program is the client then QNetworkAccessManager and QNetworkReply
If your program is the server then QTcpServer

[ada10]

Is there a qt example app which does file hosting using QTcpServer ?

[ChrisW67]

Have you actually looked at the QTcpServer docs?
