ceegeye a C++ library for CGI programs / News: Recent posts

jwcgi library name change and update
new version ceegeye-2.0.2
ajax example demo using dojo
new documentation

version 1.30.0
session class rewrite. No longer relies on cookies. sessions are written to
file on the server. The constructor call has changed because of this.
new configure script variables:
--enable-demos compile demo cgi
--enable-mysqldemo compile mysql demo cgi
By default demos are not compiled/installed, need --enable-demos switch
to configure
New mySQL tutorial and html code generation file to assist in database connection
find the tutorial in the docs/mySQL directory
To compile the mysql demo you need the --enable-demos switch plus the --enable-mysqldemo
switch to configure.

Bug fix for non compilation problems.
i.e.
errant parameter name in inputpasswd function in xhtml.cpp

minor changes to the xhtml interface, possibly breaking old code!
i.e. added css class attribute to most of the form input functions.
You can now make most form elements your own using cascading style sheets.
Changed the docs to reflect this and also added an example of inlining a style tag in a pages head tag

using pkg-config broken (in 1.26.1) using the --libs switch as the Makefile.am file referenced wrong versioning variable
i.e. pkg-config returned -ljwcgi-1.26
but the link to this lib is not created. Sorry if you have 1.26.1 and are using pkg-config, upgrade to 1.26.2
You could still explicitly link with 1.26.1
i.e. -ljwcgi
works fine.

version 1.26
Added all files under autotools control.
can use pkg-config as a result of this (see docs)
added xhtml bindings via the xhtml class.
can use css via external linked files see
xhtml::pagebegin for details
windows dll currently broken (partial template specialization problems)
I believe VC 6 specific, ain't buying newer version so probably will remain this way.
the code works fine if you link against compiled object code.
all demos render xhtml 1.0 strict pages.
new documentation to reflect changes.
in debug mode ( NDEBUG not defined ) xhtml class asserts if closing tags called out of order.
if your pages do not render properly check your web logs!!
CGI class interface unchanged, still silly simple

minor bug fix
new compilation flags that affect library size

version 1.23
Added SSL specific Environment variable functions.
changed the environment demo cgi to reflect this.

mostly changes to the webpage object class "wp"
textarea now takes a vector of strings as an argument.
tooltips added to some of the form objects e.g. submit buttons
bug fix for the H1-6 functions.
