request

State associated with a request.

This is the API for multi-threaded code. Code should be structured like this:

int descriptor;
Mutex mutex;
void handler() {
  FastCGI.request request;
  assert(FastCGI.request.init(out request, descriptor) == 0);
  while (true) {
    mutex.lock () ;
    var fail = request.accept() < 0;
    mutex.unlock();
    if (fail)
      break;
    // Process request
    request.finish();
  }
  request.close(false);
}
void main() {
  mutex = new Mutex();
  assert(FastCGI.init() == 0);
  stderr.printf("I:open_socket path=\"%s\" backlog=%d\n", socket_path, backlog);
  descriptor = FastCGI.open_socket(socket_path, backlog);
  assert(descriptor != -1);
  try {
    while (thread_count > 1) {
      Thread.create<void>(handler, false);
      thread_count--;
    }
    handler();
  } catch(ThreadError e) {
    // Handle error
  }
}

It is important that only one thread at a time attempt to call accept, hence the mutex. The request can be read from the client using environment and the response can be written to the client using out.
