Class YumServer

java.lang.Object
  org.rhq.plugins.platform.content.yum.YumServer

public class YumServer
extends Object

Provides a bare-bones http server for yum requests. It is designed to be a non-concurrent server to ensure that requests are handled one at a tiem. This is neccessary because the server caches the local metadata files. A concurrent server would either duplicate the work required (separate files per thread) to construct the local metadata or each thread would step-on the shared metadata files. Either way, a concurrent server should be sufficient for a single client.
