The VPS v2 Virtual Server system is robust in its support of programming languages.
  • gcc (g++)
  • C (cc)
  • as (an assembler)
  • Java
  • Perl
  • Tcl
  • Python
  • UNIX shell programs
  • Ruby
  • PHP

While it is beyond the scope of this chapter to teach you how to program in a specific language, it can address some common errors that are encountered when using these utilities. This chapter discusses Perl in the most detail, because it is the language most often chosen for Web development. However, the theoretical discussion of Perl equally applies to programs written in other languages.

This chapter contains information about the following:

  • The Common Gateway Interface (CGI)
  • Programming on the VPS v2 Virtual Server
  • Programming with Perl
  • Understanding Java
  • Understanding Compiled Languages
  • Understanding Shell Languages

All instructions in this chapter are given as if you have connected to your VPS v2 Virtual Server using SSH, and are at the command prompt. After typing any UNIX command, press the Enter key.
