[fpc-devel] TCGIApplication

[Michael Schnell]

Hi Experts.

I'm aiming to create non-GUI applications (not command line "programs", 
i.e. applications that can use event driven programming with TTimer, 
TThread.Synchronize etc.) using Free Pascal (and Lazarus).

When looking into that I found that I need to derive a new class 
("TNonGuiApplication") from TCustomApplication.

I also found that this already has been done in the library with the 
"TCGIApplication" Class.

What exactly is that beast (something in the manner I need (non-Gui 
"Application"), maybe the HTTP user interface the name suggests even 
might be useful for my purpose) ? Has it been tested in any way ? (I 
tried to create A "CGI-Application with the menus that _does_ exist in 
Lazarus for that purpose but Lazarus crashes in the process.)

Thanks for any comments,

-Michael
