Snap is a simple and fast web development framework and server written in haskell. for more information or to download the latest version, you can visit the snap project website at .

this library contains the core definitions and types for the snap framework, including:

1. primitive types and functions for http (requests, responses, cookies, post/query parameters, etc)

2. type aliases and helper functions for iteratee i/o

3. a monad for programming web handlers called \"snap\", inspired by happstack's (), which allows:

o stateful access to the http request and response objects

o monadic failure (i.e. monadplus/alternative instances) for declining to handle requests and chaining handlers together

o early termination of the computation if you know early what you want to return and want to prevent further monadic processing

this package contains the libraries compiled with profiling enabled.
