Detailed Description

Represents the HTTP service endpoint.

When a request is received from a client a method object is created to represent the request method and provide a mechanism for responding.

Note that the handler class hides some of the details of responding. The returned method can be passed to an application-defined root handler object to make it easier to find the resource identified by the URI and execute the method on it.
