Introduction |

Big Blue provides developers with several API programs to help
support CGI program. Its not a requirement to use these programs, you can create your own
API programs but why bother! It would be advise to simply take the existing API and wrap
them in a class wrapper and simply pass the required parameters.
CGI Support
The supporting API Service Programs for HTTP support is located in the
QTCP library named QTMHCGI (QTCP/QTMHCGI)
| API Service Program |

| QtmhGetEnv |
Get Environment Variable |
| QtmhCvtDB |
Convert to DB |
| QtmhPutEnv |
Put Environment Variable |
To display the service programs call the command DSPSRVPGM QTCP/QTMHCGI
Library's
To organize your collection of CGI specific programs I would advise to create a CGI Library - CGILIBRARY
After creating the library copy (DUP) into it all of the IBM API service programs
| Copy the API service program QTMHCGI to CGILIBRARY |
| CRTDUPOBJ OBJ(QTCP/QTMHCGI TYPE(*SRVPGM) TOLIB(CGILIBRARY) |
Binding Directory
Create a Binding Directory to hold a list of modules and service programs
called CGIBNDDIR
(CRTBNDDIR BNDDIR(CGILIBRARY/CGIBNDDIR)
Add the service program QTMHCGI to our new Binding Directory
(ADDBNDDIRE BNDDIR(CGILIBRARY/CGIBNDDIR) BNDDIRE(CGILIBRARY/QTMHCGI)
