The HTTP Helper Service provides two utilities for HTTP bundle clients:

• getting HTTP output without using sockets or already created sockets,
• listing all AliasProperties objects from HttpService.

The HTTP Helper Service returns HTTP responses to HTTP requests from bundles on the local device by using no TCP sockets. If requesting bundles are running on the same machine as the HTTP Bundle, they can exchange HTTP messages straight in bytes. You may not use sockets to contact the OSGi runtime. The HTTP Helper Service is published under the com.prosyst.mbs.services.http.HttpHelper interface.
