CGI::Apache

See the current Perl documentation for CGI::Apache.

Here is our local, out-dated (pre-5.6) version:

CGI::Apache - Make things work with CGI.pm against Perl-Apache API

 require CGI::Apache;

 my $q = new Apache::CGI;

 $q->print($q->header);

 #do things just like you do with CGI.pm

When using the Perl-Apache API, your applications are faster, but the enviroment is different than CGI. This module attempts to set-up that environment as best it can.

NOTE 1

This module used to be named Apache::CGI. Sorry for the confusion.

NOTE 2

If you're going to inherit from this class, make sure to ``use'' it after your package declaration rather than ``require'' it. This is because CGI.pm does a little magic during the import() step in order to make autoloading work correctly.
