What are the current supported protocols ?

• FCGI (thanks to a modified libfcgi on Wihn64)
• CGI
• EiffelWebNino
• in the future we could imagine supporting SCGI, ...

Which platform are supported?

• Any platform supported by Eiffel, and the protocol you decide to use.
• For instance if you use FCGI, you need to find the proper apache2 module for your platform, and be sure the libfcgi can be compiled on this platform

Which web server could I use?

• Any server supporting the protocol you decide to use
• Usually that is to say, Apache2, IIS7, lighttpd, nginx
• Note:

  currently the libfcgi wrapper requires the executable to be launched by the server, 
  since it relies on shared pipe. We can not run the FCGI server (i.e your server application) by yourself.
  However, this should not be that difficult to add the "socket" support.

Do you need any code/library contribution?
