class type cgi_activation =object..end
Portage: In addition to defining a type, the following
cgi_activation also defines a conversion function that allows
to connect old scripts to the new infrastructure. Renamed
simply cgi as this is the main cgi-like abstraction.
method environment : Netcgi1_compat.Netcgi_env.cgi_environment

method initial_arguments : (string * cgi_argument) list
method initial_argument : string -> cgi_argument
method initial_argument_value : ?default:string -> string -> string
method initial_multiple_argument : string -> cgi_argument list
method arguments : (string * cgi_argument) listMutability of arguments has been dropped. We indeed believe
that how to deal with arguments is the role of a higher level
library, so it is unconvenient that they are mutable (force
copying even if unecessary). Netcgi.Argument has a few
helper functions to help manipulating lists of immutable
arguments. Moreover, mutable arguments send the wrong message
to the user (imagine one wants to keep a cache of args ->
response) and unnecessarily complicate the interface.
It has type argument list as the name is redundant and
this is better suited for the Netcgi.query_string_spec
optional arguments.

method output : Netchannels.trans_out_obj_channelout_channel for coherence with the

?set_cookie in favor of ?set_cookies for coherence
e.g. with ?fields.
