get URL params with Poco library

Question

I'm developing a web server with Poco library. When my server receive a HTTP request with form data in GET mode, I don't know how to use the class HTMLForm to show a list with received pairs param=value.

With request.getURI().getQuery() I am able to get the complete string. I guess I can split the string in the traditional way, using a tokenizer.

Is there a better way to do it using Poco? Thanks

Ok, class HTMLForm inherits from class NameValueCollection, that implements an iterator useful to move through the pairs "name=value".

This is the code that solve my problem:

string name;
string value;
HTMLForm form( request );

NameValueCollection::ConstIterator i = form.begin();

while(i!=form.end()){

    name=i->first;
    value=i->second;
    cout << name << "=" << value << endl << flush;
    ++i;
}
