Returns the system wide default HttpServerProvider for this invocation of the Java virtual machine.

The first invocation of this method locates the default provider object as follows:

  1. If the system property com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpServerProvider is defined then it is taken to be the fully-qualified name of a concrete provider class. The class is loaded and instantiated; if this process fails then an unspecified unchecked error or exception is thrown.

  2. If a provider class has been installed in a jar file that is visible to the system class loader, and that jar file contains a provider-configuration file named com.sun.net.httpserver.HttpServerProvider in the resource directory META-INF/services, then the first class name specified in that file is taken. The class is loaded and instantiated; if this process fails then an unspecified unchecked error or exception is thrown.

  3. Finally, if no provider has been specified by any of the above means then the system-default provider class is instantiated and the result is returned.

Subsequent invocations of this method return the provider that was returned by the first invocation.

Returns: The system-wide default HttpServerProvider
