I am trying to understand how to implement sharing of objects in memory between various processes in apache. I have been using the routines defined in <sys/mman.h> to implement the shared memory mapping functionality. However, I am not seeing any actual sharing of the objects in my output.
Hi Pranesh; you are more likely to get help with this on a linux developer forum, since there is nothing Apache specific here. You might want to look at the httpd scoreboard implementation, or better yet, mod_socache_shm.c in the new betas, none of which use the linux/unix shm conventions. These are all based on the portability layer in APR, so that the shared objects work on additional platforms.
