OS : Linux.
Im trying to find possible ways to design web interface for my embedded system. Currently there is a shell(text based) and a small set of commands are implemented to query the device.
Im new to web development, my questions are :
What web server must i use ? ( i got apache up on my development setup and tried using cgi to fetch some pages, but seems like this not the right choice for embedded systems)
Assuming i using CGI, what strategy can be used for passing data between CGI and the Main App. I intended to create a thread in the MainApp to handle the query from CGI script. This thread would call interfaces in the MainApp, retrive the data and pass it to CGI.
Thanks
