NAME

       cgi_parse  - Parse incoming CGI data

SYNOPSIS

       #include <cgi/cgi.h>

       NEOERR *cgi_parse (CGI *cgi);

ARGUMENTS

       cgi - a pointer to a CGI pointer

DESCRIPTION

       We split cgi_init into two sections, one that parses           just the
       basics,  and  the  second   is   cgi_parse.    cgi_parse             is
       responsible  for parsing the entity body of the HTTP           request.
       This payload is typically only sent  (expected)            on  POST/PUT
       requests,  but  generally  this  is  called  on            all incoming
       requests.  This function walks the list of            registered  parse
       callbacks  (see  cgi_register_parse_cb),           and if none of those
       matches or handles the request, it

       handlers:                 POST   w/   application/x-www-form-urlencoded
                    POST  w/  application/form-data               PUT  w/  any
       content type           In general, if there is no Content-Length,  then
                 cgi_parse   ignores   the   payload   and  doesn’t  raise  an
                 error.

RETURN VALUE

       Either data populated into files and cgi->hdf, or whatever
       other side effects of your own registered callbacks.
