The problem of webserver

[lancewu]

[ FlexSim 22.1.4 ]

I am exploring how other systems can connect to flexsim, so I am studying the principle of flexsim webserver. As shown in the figure, I found that flexsimserverexe should have created a server for connecting to web browsers.

1. I have a question about how web browser queries are passed to Flexsim, how is the connection between flexsimserverexe and Flexsim done, and what is the principle behind its implementation?

2. I found HTTP and websocket responses under the MAIN:/project/exec/global/serverinterface/queryhandlers node. Can I create my own HTTP client to request it without using a webserver? What do I need to do?

You can find HTTP.method, request and response methods document in the manual. They can be used to communicate with other web services.
