I made available dBaseWebLite 2.0 at :

www.appliserver.com/dbwdload.html

dBwLite is a library to develop web applications.

Windows users will find in the archive a copy of Apache standalone that
starts automatically the main page and the CGI dbwdemo.exe. Apache is an
old (quick,small) 32 bit version, so the executables are all compiled 32
bit.

dBaseWeb is pure Harbour code so it can be used in any OS supporting
Harbour. Sources of the library are included.

The demo does not cover all the aspects, only gives an idea.

The point is that dBaseWeb is both a standard program model that does a
lot of things automatically, and a collection of functions. It's similar
to a CASE in that respect (ex-Clipperians maybe remember dBsee,
smartCase, and the oldest programmers could remember the ancestor: The
Last One...). The programmer writes its specific functions, and the rest
is automatically generated (but vastly customizable).

However, dBaseWeb is not a CASE. True, you don't write the main()
procedure. It's automatic. But you control its behavior via callback
functions, plus of course you have to write your functions, and that is
not via some nice UI, it's all code you must write by hand (or by
copy/paste, eh eh).

Te distribution simplifies things for Windows users,with Apache and the
demo program autostart, but is perfectly standard as for the sources.

Just drop me an e-mail if you decide to try it and want to let me know
your thoughts, thks!

Have fun!

Thank you, Mr. Campagna, it's exactly what I've been looking for!
Easy to install, clear, and above all, fast! A breeze!
Thank you so much and congratulations!

Congratulations on this publication!
I've seen the demos, I think it would be a good thing to run just one CGI (exe)
otherwise a hypothetical antivirus would intervene too many times if you don't make dangerous exclusions.
it is certainly an alternative way of working using harbor and a Web interface.

Thank you friends for your interest in dBaseWeb. I hope that it can be of help for those willing to experiment with the web applications CGI-based.

Grazie amici per l'interesse in dBaseWeb. Spero che possa essere d'aiuto per chi vuole cimentarsi con le applicazioni web basate sulla tecnologia CGI.

Dan
