- Hi.
-
- I need recommendation regarding which C library to use to write CGIs.
-
- So far I have found three different ones:
-
- cgic (http://www.boutell.com/cgic/)
- libcgi (http://wsk.eit.com/wsk/dist/doc/libcgi/libcgi.html)
- cgihtml (http://hcs.harvard.edu/~eekim/web/cgihtml)
-
- The relevant FAQs aren't any help. Boutell only refers to cgic,
- and Hedlund only refers to EIT. There really should be something lika a
- 2+ line comparision between the products.
-
- What I am looking for is a library to do the ususal tedious stuff.
- I don't care much about functions to generate HTML, since we will use
- templates to generate pages.
- Stable libraries with user base preferred.
-
- I already use perl so I don't need pointers in that direction.
-
- Thank you for any information.
- Will summarize if anyone is interested.
-
- Bjorn
