How I can listen to all http requests of a webserver with c++?

I have make a lot of researches about this topic, but I don't find an answer, or I find it but don't understand really well.

I'm a beginner with network/programming network, so I need to understand something.

My question : In my case, I have already an httpserver, running on the port 3000. I want a c++ program who listen to all http-request that are received by my webserver on the port 3000.

I know that I can't run more than one service who listen on my port 3000. So I have discovered, socket who allow communication in relation client/server, but I don't think it's really appropriate.. Im using tcpdump to already scan http-request from my port 3000, I really would like to understand how to do this with c++.

I hope I've made myself clear.

Thank's !

make a c++ program that listens of port 3000, make the server listen on 3001 and have your app forward the requests to port 3001 after it has processed them

 tcp->3000->your_app->3001->web_server
