9 **May 28, 2016** - Some good examples are now done and in the documentation.
10 I've got said documentation hosted online now so [check it out][13].
12 **May 18, 2016** - The re-write is now effectively complete. What I mean by this
13 is that the library now builds and passes some basic benchmarking tests. I'm
14 really hoping to get as much feedback as possible so please test away. The docs
15 are not web hosted anywhere yet so you'll have to build them yourself as
16 described below. Note that the only example/tutorial that works so far is the
19 **April 10, 2016** - Fastcgi++ is going through a dramatic rewrite now and the
20 master branch does not work at all. If you're here hoping for a functional
21 version scroll down to the releases section. If you'd like to read a bit more
22 about the rewrite and fastcgi++ in general, check out [[Ten years of

29 This library is intended as a high-efficiency C++14 api for web development. It
30 allows your applications to communicate with web servers through the FastCGI
31 protocol, tabulates all your environment data, manages character encoding, and
32 allows requests to effectively share CPU time. If you want any further
33 information check the Doxygen documentation associated with the respective
34 release, or build it yourself. Be sure to read through the examples.
38 Your best bet for releases and documentation is to clone the Git repository,
39 checkout the tag you want and see the building section of either this file or
40 the Doxygen documentation. If you're too lazy for that, however, you can take
41 the risk and try the following links.

65 This should provide you with all the basic stuff you need to do to get fastcgi++
66 built and installed. The build system is CMake and the following instructions
67 assume you are in Bash.
69 First we need to clone.
71 git clone https://github.com/eddic/fastcgipp.git fastcgi++
73 Then we make a build directory.
78 Now we need run cmake.
80 cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE ../fastcgi++
82 Note that that was to do a release build. That means heavily optimized and not
83 good for debugging. If you want to do some debugging to either fastcgi++ or an
84 application you are developing that uses fastcgi++, do a debug build.
86 cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=DEBUG ../fastcgi++
88 Or if you want some really hardcore debug and diagnostics info
90 cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=DEBUG -D LOG_LEVEL:INT=4 ../fastcgi++
92 Now let's build the library itself.
96 Then we can build the documentation if we so desire.
100 Now let's install it all (doc included if it was built).
104 Maybe we should build the unit tests?
108 And of course we should run them as well.
112 And hey, let's build the examples to!
