Package sunlabs.brazil.handler Description

This package contains a collection classes that implement the Handler interface for use with the Server package, along with several support classes.

Just about the only thing they have in common is their lack of dependencies on any other packages. Some provide generic capabilities, such as standard CGI interfaces or template processing, others are either special purpose, provided to demonstrate how to write handlers, and others are skeleton handlers, designed to be finished to provide application specific functionality.

You can find a summary of the handlers' options here.
