this came up on test-dev@ a while ago. while we haven't quite fully settled on an interface to Apache-Test yet, I thought to post this patch here, since it implements some XXX comments in core. the output for the prefork and worker builds I have look like
Server version: Apache/2.1.0-dev Server built: Aug 12 2003 02:25:22 Server's Module Magic Number: 20030213:1 Architecture: 32-bit Server MPM: Prefork threaded: no forked: yes (dynamic) Server compiled with....
Server version: Apache/2.1.0-dev Server built: Aug 12 2003 02:28:54 Server's Module Magic Number: 20030213:1 Architecture: 32-bit Server MPM: Worker threaded: yes (static) forked: yes (dynamic) Server compiled with....
I think this change makes the bug reports better.
However we probably should use fixed/variable, and not static/dynamic so not to confuse with static/dynamic build. I'd suggest this wording:
Server MPM: Worker threaded: fixed number processes: variable number
and not list either of the two if the are 'no' in your original output, so there is no need for no/yes.
Notice that specifying the above information is probably not very useful for major, core mpms, however when people will start writing their own mpms, this fixed/variable information will come handy.
