Hi,

For God's sake, no! The CGI function will be called from the httpd
process if you have registered an appropriate cgi. The CGI function is
part of a "normal" process an therfore not executed in the irq context.
You can safely use NutEventPost or NutEventPostAsync whatever you like
better. To communicate with another process you can use message queues
as well...

Bye,

Ole
