TROSynapseSuperHTTPServer
Overview
This Super HTTP Server implements the server side of the new and enhanced HTTP based channel which provides a sophisticated and flexible communication channel that uses persistent connections to enable true asynchronous calls and server callbacks.
The channel is based on the open source Synapse components that are available at http://synapse.ararat.cz.

constructor Create override
Standard component constructor
constructor Create(aOwner: TComponent)
Parameters:
- aOwner: Owner
AccessControlMaxAge (declared in TROCustomHTTPServer)
property AccessControlMaxAge: Integer read write
Active (declared in TROServer)
Toggles whether the server ready to receive requests from clients. Depending on the server type, changing this property might open/close a network socket or otherwise toggle whether the server will process incoming requests.
property Active: Boolean read write
Assign override
Copies the contents of another, similar object.
procedure Assign(Source: TPersistent)
Parameters:
- Source: Instance whose properties will be copied
AutoRegisterSession (declared in TROBaseSuperHTTPServer)
This property is used by the server to automatically sign new clients up to the event repository, thus making it possible for them to receive events without manual registration. The default value is true.
property AutoRegisterSession: Boolean read write
BindV4
Determines whether it is allowed to use IPv4 network addresses.
property BindV4: Boolean read write
BindV6
Gets or sets the flag indicating whether the server should listen for IPv6 connections.
Setting this flag doesn't have any immediate effect. Its value is used only when the server is opened (either by setting the Active property to true).
property BindV6: Boolean read write
CheckProperties virtual (declared in TROServer)
Validates the server properties.
procedure CheckProperties
CloseConnection protected override
Closes the specified connection when overridden.
procedure CloseConnection(aConnection: IROHTTPClientCapabilities)
Parameters:
- aConnection: Specified connection

DefaultResponse protected (declared in TROServer)
Holds the message that will be sent back to the client if it improperly "welcomes" the server.
property DefaultResponse: string read write
DisableNagle
Controls whether data packets are sent individually or if small packets are held back to send as part of fewer larger data packets. Normally, you will want this disabled as it can have a significant effect on performance. The only time when its worth keeping the property enabled is when there are many small packets to be sent and you need to keep network bandwidth to a minimum.
See more at Nagle's algorithm
property DisableNagle: Boolean read write
Dispatchers (declared in TROServer)
Specifies how incoming requests will be processed and dispatched. Depending on the server type, one or multiple dispatchers can be configured to receive messages from the client.

=Essential Sub-Properties=
- Message specifies the message format to be used for this dispatcher.
- Name specifies the name, or possibly the URL for the dispatcher.
In HTTP based servers (such as the TROIndyHTTPServer, the Name will be appended as folder to the server URL allowing the server to make multiple dispatchers available at different URLs.
