CPPSERV: Documentation: Writing C++ Servlets

Writing Servlets

Once you got servlet engine installed, writing servlets is fairly easy.

• Create a class derived from cserv::Servlet
• Add EXPORT_SERVLET(YourServletClassName) in your source file that defines servlet functions
• Compile your servlet as shared library and link it with -lcserv
• Add your servlet to configuration file:
  <servlet name="MyServlet" dso="path/to/MyServlet.so"/>

Note: engine and servlet need to be compiled by same GCC version.

Note: servlet must be compiled and linked with the same version of libcserv as cppserv version it will run in.
