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.
