Question

I want to experiment a bit with C++ as a server side language. I’m not looking for a framework, and simply want to achieve a silly old “Hello World” webapp using C++.

Is there an Apache HTTP server module that I can install?

If i can do the PHP equivalent of :

<?php 
    $personName = "Peter Pan";
    echo "Hello " . $personName;

I’d be most thrilled! Thanks in advance!

cgi would do this. Just have your C++ app spit its output to stdout and your mod_cgi will handle it
