// WS_CGI.DLL

// Deriving a DLL from CExecCGI

CExecCGI is an abstract class, inteded for derivation in a polymorphic interface DLL. This abstract class has some

static functions which are implemented in a static interface DLL. When the polymorphic interface DLL is loaded

any static interface DLL requiered by the polymorphic DLL are also loaded. So you do not have to worry about this.

Mainly, the CGI programmer has only to implement the pure virtual function ExecCGI(). The enviroment variables are

defined as a class (TCgiEnv). The command-line arguments are also implented as a class (CCommandArg). Their values are set by the 

WebServer.

The communication with the webserver is done through two functions: Read and Write.

(*) TInt Read(TDes& aBuffer)

Note: This functions reads data from the WebServer.

Arguments

=========

TDes& aBuffer

-------------

Descriptor into which characters are read. Any existing contents are overwritten. 

On return, its length is set to the number of characters read. The length is set to zero when there are no more

characters to be read.

Return

======

TInt

----

An error code.

(*) TInt Write(TDesC& aBuffer)

Note: This functions sends data to the webserver.

Arguments

=========

Descriptor from which characters are written.

Return

======

TInt

----

An error code.
