cgi-bin functionality from web server thread

[Mark Thompson]

Clovertechies,

CL 6.2 comes with a $HCIROOT/web directory that contains what appears to be outdated instructions for implementing cgi functionality in Apache.

Does anyone have an example (or where to look in the documentation) for how to use a PROTOCOL:java/ws-server thread to implement cgi?

Specifically looking for:

1. Accept an https connection

2. Pass the query string to a script (tcl, ksh, perl, etc)

3. Return the script output as the response

Hi Mark, just thinking out loud here, but you would probably want to do the following:

– set up the WS thread as a raw provider/server

– configure an inbound TPS to exec the script and return the exec output as a REPLY message
