    Searching for a C/C++ tutorial to build web applications...

    Hi,
    I know C/C++ a lot, in fact, I use it in my current day job, everyday. But, I always only wrote code for games in C/C++. What I am looking for is a tutorial that will teach me the how-to to make web applications using C/C++.

    I'm medium to advanced in C/C++.

    By the way, Im asking this because I saw that a lot of traffic trading scripts says that they use C to make the script faster. I was just wondering how they did it, and would like to learn how to do it too.

    Thanks a lot in advance,
    CGP

      Man... I was a C programmer for about 7 years, and while I love the language, it is *not* what you should use for web programming.

      It's no different than any other language though.. you just spit out html.

      Seriously though... there is zero reason to do it considering the speed of modern computers.

      I like ducks.

          I agree, and regardless HOW good you are with C/C++, you are much more prone to common C based bugs with memory management. Personally, I would suggest a higher level language that handles all that for you. Think about the time to write an app in C/C++ compared to PHP/Perl. Productivity is the key

              I agree with the concensus here, while C is a very proficient language, things like perl or php are probably easier and have much more flexibility since they were designed for web.
