reg fcgi and c++

Question

I am developing a sample using c++ which will get request from lighttpd webserver using fcgi protocol and process the request and send the response to client.

I could not find any samples using fcgi + lighttpd + c++ application.

I am struggling for a week.

Please help me in doing this.

Answer 1

I suppose that you mean FastCGI, not FCGI (but Googling on FCGI gives you FastCGI immediately, so you should know that).

Googling for Fastcgi C++ gives immediately a lot of examples and good libraries. I'm very surprised you are struggling for an entire week. In particular:

1. fastcgipp is a C++ library for FastCGI, and it has several examples inside.
2. wt is a C++ library to write self-contained C++ web servers and has a good FastCGI mode. There are many examples inside.
3. CGI on SourceForge is also a FastCgi capable library
4. This old question on StackOverflow is relevant
5. fastcgi-app is also interesting.
6. etc...

You really should better use search engines. If you are really struggling for a whole week on something that simple, you'll have trouble making any FastCGI applications. It is very surprising that by a single Google search I found dozens of relevant answers in a minute, and that you had to work an entire week without success.
