POST request without leads to SEGFAULT

[ldsmoreira]

In this section of code, when the post request body comes empty the application breaks. Is it the expected behavior ?

else if (request.method == method_t::POST) {
  try {
    if (request.body.empty())
      throw;
    possible_prime = std::stoul(request.body);
  } catch (...) {
    throw std::runtime_error(
        "POST requests should have a path of 'is_prime' and a body with 'SOME_NUMBER'");
  }

Why POST if there's nothing to POST? I personally find that acceptable:)

i mean the program is just for testing really, to show how to write an example application using prime_server. indeed the correct response is http400 which is easily done but also not all that important

Yes, it's definitely understandable! :)
Since I was already working on the shortcircuiters PR and using prime_serverd as my go-to test binary, I fixed it by throwing a runtime_error exception in one of my most recent commits.
