Shouldn't assert declarations be seen in documentation?

Yes. Web server and application are running separately. Web 
server is parsing request message, and by using host, determining 
which web application to route the request. Web application gets 
the request, does extra parsing like query, path, cookies, etc. 
and sends response message back to web server, and it sends those 
messages back to client.

I am using shared memory, and named pipe for these to be able to 
increase performance as high as possible. Thus, it is relies on 
Posix and my mostly my own library codes.
