Detailed Description

Class that abstracts a data source.

The CgiInput class is an abstraction for all input data to the CGI application. This allows input data to come from something other than standard input (cin). This is useful, in fact necessary, when using cgicc with FastCgi. Library users wishing to exploit this functionality should create a subclass and override the read and getenv methods.

Member Function Documentation

bool cgicc::CgiInput::operator== ( const CgiInput  )  const [inline]

Compare two CgiInput objects for equality.

In the default implementation all CgiInput objects are equal

Parameters:
input The CgiInput object to compare to this one
Returns:
true

Definition at line 109 of file CgiInput.h.

bool cgicc::CgiInput::operator!= ( const CgiInput input  )  const [inline]

Compare two CgiInput objects for inequality.

In the default implementation all CgiInput objects are equal

Parameters:
input The CgiInput object to compare to this one
Returns:
false

Definition at line 120 of file CgiInput.h.

CgiInput& cgicc::CgiInput::operator= ( const CgiInput  )  [inline]

Assign one CgiInput to another.

Does nothing in the default implementation

Parameters:
input The CgiInput object to copy
Returns:
A reference to this.

Definition at line 131 of file CgiInput.h.

size_t cgicc::CgiInput::read ( char *  data,
size_t  length 
) [virtual]

Read data from a data source.

In the default implementation, this is a wrapper for cin.read()

Parameters:
data The target buffer
length The number of characters to read
Returns:
The number of characters read

Reimplemented in cgicc::FCgiIO.

Definition at line 41 of file CgiInput.cpp.

std::string cgicc::CgiInput::getenv ( const char *  varName  )  [virtual]

Query the value of an environment variable.

In the default implementation, this is a wrapper for std::getenv()

Parameters:
varName The name of an environment variable
Returns:
The value of the requested environment variable, or an empty string if not found.

Reimplemented in cgicc::FCgiIO.
