Hi, for testing purposes I need an interface to the modperl_interp_t. That means I'd like to check the current interp's refcnt and num_requests members from perl level.
So I thought of adding a ModPerl::Interpreter XS module. But after reading http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/devel/core/explained.html I am only more confused. Why is it so complicated to add a new XS module? Is it really necessary to edit all these tables and maps? Further, somewhere is said that the source scanning is not yet stable. In fact I have tried it some time ago and got completely different results. I know how to create such a module outside modperl but it would depend on modperl. But I need it to test modperl itself. Hence I cannot build the module outside modperl because I would not be able to install it without modperl. So, if someone knows better than me please help. A patch that adds a framework for the new module to modperl so that I could simply fill in my stuff would be best. An explanation what to would also be most appreciated. Thanks, Torsten
