HttpCore Overview

    HttpCore is a set of low level HTTP transport components that can be used to build custom
    client and server side HTTP services with a minimal footprint. HttpCore supports two I/O models: 
    blocking I/O model based on the classic Java I/O and non-blocking, event driven I/O model based 
    on Java NIO.
