request().script_name() and request().path_info() is the answer
if I understand it right.

You can provide quite complex and flexible mount point 
for CppCMS application. See cppcms::mount_point class docs.

If you have any dougbts about what happens create a simple
class that "mounts" to everithing (default) and print in it's main
script_name and path_info.

I know I just hand found it too cryptic and not well documented
in comparison to other confugration files designed for human
being.
