Field ContentData is 1024 bytes. Actual ContentData length is related to field
ContentLength of FCGI_Header. ContentLength is declared as word type to conform
with FastCGI specification. So maximum ContentLength is 65536 bytes.
According to FastCGI specification,
http://www.mit.edu/~yandros/doc/specs/fcgi-spec.html
"contentData: Between 0 and 65535 bytes of data, interpreted according to the record
type."
Why fastcgi.pp declared it as array[0..1023] of byte instead of array[0..
65535] of byte ?
This unit is a translation of a library. Most likely, that was exactly the
value specified in the original header files.
I would not recommend using this unit.
It is most likely outdated, and I would not even know what library it supports.
I will ask on the core group what to do, I think it is better to remove it.
Free Pascal supports fastcgi natively using the custfcgi or fpfcgi units.
