The FastCGI protocol is interesting to implement. It should be doable by implementing the FastCGI protocol in a handler, which talks to FastCGI providers. > My day job's upcoming requirements aside, this > will be a very nice to have server, essentially a better nginx (as it > only talks HTTP/1.0 at the backend, ruling out its use as a front-end > server to application servers like Tomcat/Glassfish), and will be very > attractive also to users deploying web applications on memory-starved > VPS's. > Maybe you need a reverse proxy? If that is the case I would say cpp-netlib is more than capable of providing that. For FastCGI, a fastcgi binding would be really nice to have. Maybe others in the list have information on FastCGI to help implement that? It would be really great to have in a contrib/ folder inside of boost/network/ to include things like these. Thanks for posting Paolo, I hope others in the list can chime in with their thoughts. -- Dean Michael Berris deanberris.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download new Adobe(R) Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 The new Adobe(R) Flex(R) 4 and Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 (formerly Flex(R) Builder(TM)) enable the development of rich applications that run across multiple browsers and platforms.
