A Piece of CherryPy for CGI Programmers

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the making-web-programming-easier-to-stomach dept.

An anonymous reader writes "IBM developerWorks is running an article outlining the strengths and offering some helpful advice on the Python framework 'CherryPy'. CherryPy uses the same concepts as CGI to bind a web server to a web application, but it improves performance and gains persistence across requests by handling all its requests within a single process."

  1. Bah, Scripting languages by Jessta · · Score: 1, Troll

    There are too many scripting languages...actually there are too many interpreters for scripting languages.
    Except for the syntax differences, what is the difference between ruby,perl,php and python?
    Seeing as they are so similar why should I have to install four different interpreters and why should applications have to be ported between the languages?
    Seems like a large waste of time.
    I'm all for lots of versions of the same sort of tool as long as they are compatible.

    This is some thing microsoft got right. .NET is really great in that way.
    Many languages, one interpreter.

    ...and that is all I have to say about that.
