Awesome. I'll have to check out lighttpd sometime.  As for DSP using fastCGI, that might be an excellent approach for the days ahead until DDL is ready for prime-time.

I'll admit that the approach has its detractors, but its really all in how you use it.  Ideally, I'd like something like DSP to allow for pure .d pages to be served up the same as .dsp pages with embedded markup.  That way, the heavy coding is in all the "code-behind" .d pages with .dsp scripts being mostly markup with whatever glue is needed to talk to the rest of the app.

Can't wait!

Hey, I'll just grab the old thread out again.

I am interested in FastCGI, too and would like to know the project's status. I checked out dejan.lekic.org but couldn't find anything concerning FastCGI. Did you dump the project or just don't host it anymore? do you still have the src? First I was about to learn FastCGI with C++, but then I heard about D as the C++ without the "yikes".

Or does anyone else still have the lib?

Best regards,

Oh Walter, that's a quote worth the DMD homepage!  "C++ without the 'yikes!'" suits D perfectly!

FastCGID is still a registered project on DSource IIRC: http://dsource.org/projects/fastcgid (formulating URL from memory, that link might be dead)

Great, thank you! I'll put a link on various sites, so google gives it a higher rank, I don't think I would have found it without your help.

Thanks!
