URL routing?

[AlecTaylor]

How do I work with URL routing in node.native?

E.g.: I want to expose /foo/ and /bar/ to echo different things.

You must implement your own routing system. In your server handler you have access to the informations about the request (request& req). With a simple "if" condition on the request url you'll be able to echo different things.

Hmm, is there a trick to printing the request URL?

I've tried:

std::cout << "req = " << req;

And:

std::cout << "req = " << std::string(req);

EDIT: Oh, native::http::request::~request() is private.

EDIT2: I can see the route by returning: res.end(req.url().path());, however neither req.url().path() == "/foo" nor strcmp(req.url().path(), "foo") are working. How do I construct the condition? - Or do I need to construct my own url_obj?

That's really strange. req.url().path() == "/foo" should work.
