Dev-C++ doesn't work with CGI scripts, nor perl scripts.
I thought u could just write a C program with the content type thingy in it and tell the comipiler to give it a name of *.cgi
Do u know whicj compilers do allow it?
Perl compilers are the only one's that allow this. Get a free and good compiler from http://www.activestate.com. The link to ActivePerl will be there somewhere, shouldn't be to hard to find. Sorry though, I don't know the address to it.
I was reading on HOw stuff works.com about cgi scripts they said that you can comipile a C program with the -o command and name it .cgi and it would wor as one. They even have examples and stuff. I have placed a link at the bootom of my post if you want to check it out. Alls I want to know is if there is anyway to pass arguments or commands or whatever to the Dev C++ Compiler. Minwq or whatever without using the dos prompt.
Here is the link
Go to the next page after that one for some examples.
Now that I have thought about it, you can, but I think it has to be done in DOS Prompt mode, or else rename the *.exe file. If it can be done, it's only possible in DOS Prompt, unless someone knows of a different way.
[EDIT]I still don't think you can, the only reason why they say C in my opinion is because Perl and C are closely related syntax-wise. They both use if statements and stuff. If you don't believe me, search for perl tutorials, and see the differences[/EDIT]
a better way to do it.
The main reason I replyed agin to this is because it made its way deep into the pages of this forum and I figured more people would read it if it was there
