CGI::Application is intended to make it easier to create sophisticated,
|
|
reusable web-based applications. This module implements a methodology which,
|
|
if followed, will make your web software easier to design, easier to
|
|
document, easier to write, and easier to evolve.
|
|
|
|
The guiding philosophy behind CGI::Application is that a web-based
|
|
application can be organized into a specific set of "Run-Modes." Each
|
|
Run-Mode is roughly analogous to a single screen (a form, some output, etc).
|
|
All the Run-Modes are managed by a single "Application Module" which is a
|
|
Perl module. In your web server's document space there is an "Instance
|
|
Script" which is called by the web server as a CGI (or an Apache::Registry
|
|
script if you're using Apache + mod_perl).
|
|
|
|
CGI::Application is an Object-Oriented Perl module which implements an
|
|
Abstract Class. It is not intended that this package be instantiated
|
|
directly. Instead, it is intended that your Application Module will be
|
|
implemented as a Sub-Class of CGI::Application.
