xxm

xxm enables you to create dynamic websites in Delphi, combining both Delphi and HTML in the source files. The project is compiled into a module, ready for use by a pluggable protocol handler in Internet Explorer, an ISAPI Extension, an Apache module, with HTTPAPI, with CGI or SCGI, or a stand-alone HTTP server. (Perhaps more in the future or by other parties.)

How does it work?

<img src="Delphi/docs/overview1.png" align="right" hspace="8" width="397" height="424" /> An xxm project contains source-files that hold both HTML and Object Pascal source code. These are converted (e.g. by the auto-compile on refresh feature) into a plain Delphi project, which is compiled into a xxm Library (with the `.xxl` file extension). This xxm Library can be loaded by one of the xxm handlers:

an ISAPI extension that plugs into IIS
an Apache 2 module
a process that uses HTTPAPI (http.sys)
a stand-alone basic HTTP server
an old-fashioned CGI application
an SCGI server process
... (perhaps more later)

Most handlers are available in these forms:

no extra's: the handler loads one or more xxl's and keeps them loaded until shutdown
auto-compile: the handler checks if source-files are modified, and parses and compiles the project (great for development!)
auto-update: the handler checks for a name.xxu file, if present requests are stalled until the xxl can get overwritten by the xxu file (great for live environments!)
