Pi3Perl some help

[zimpel@t-online.de (Holger Zimmermann)]

Hi folks,

I started with Pi3Perl and had some timid first practise.
Here's a first report:

After installation look at the 2 example programs under the new
/Pi3Web/Pi3Perl subtree. In the comments you find a hint how to
run this Pi3Perl demos.

I first tried the hello.pl and made a little handler object for it
(not an optimal solution but it just works). I can plug in other
pi3perl programs there and they'll all run under
http://hostname/pi3perl/progname.pl
It means the handler is a dispatcher object for my Pi3Perl programs.
Look at the below configuration excerpt:

<Object>
	Name Start
	Class FlexibleHandlerClass
	Init ReturnCode ReturnCode=COMPLETED
	Headers ReadRequestHeaders
	.
	.
	.
	Mapping CGIMapper From="/cgi-bin/" To="Cgi-Bin\" 
	Mapping Pi3PerlMapper From="/pi3perl/" To="/pi3perl/" 
	.
	.
	.
</Object>

<Object>
	Name Pi3Perl
	Class FlexibleHandlerClass
	Condition "&cmp(&dblookup(response,string,ObjectMap),Pi3Perl)",\
#      CheckAuth Pi3WebPerl File="../Pi3Perl/auth.pl" Init="init"
Execute="execute" AuthFile="../Auth.txt" Realm="auth-realm"
	CheckPath ReturnCode ReturnCode=COMPLETED
	CheckType ReturnCode ReturnCode=COMPLETED
	Handle Condition="&regexp('*hello.pl',$z)" Pi3WebPerl \
File="../Pi3Perl/hello.pl" Execute="execute"
</Object>

<Object>
	Name Pi3PerlMapper
	Class PathMapperClass
	CaseSensitive "No"
	PathInfo "Yes"
	Action "&dbreplace(response,string,ObjectMap,Pi3Perl)"
</Object>


Note: The auth.pl is conditional executed here. This is not absolute the right
place to use it but you can try it in the way I used it here (commented out).

To be continued.
