howdy.
one of the requirement of the system that I'm developing, is the ability
for a user to upload a document from their local system and have it stored
in a database (mysql in this case).. I have traditionally used the file
upload features of CGI.pm for this type of action, but as I am in a dedicated
mod_perl environment, I wanted to see if there was a more 'mod_perl way'
to do this.
I though I found what I was looking for on
http://perl.apache.org/src/apache-modlist.html under the "* Misc" heading..
"Upload amcO File upload class APML"
and according to the notes on that page..
"Modules listed with the APML as is contact are part of the mod_perl
distribution package."
OK.. so it's standard with the mod_perl dist. But is it really? I can not
find *any* reference to it in my perl install, which has mod_perl 1.24
installed. perldoc turns up nothing..
> [backplate@freak backplate]$ perldoc Apache::Upload
> No documentation found for "Apache::Upload".
and I don't see an 'Upload.pm' anywhere..
can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm running Apache/1.3.12 (Unix)
mod_perl/1.24 compiled with perl5.6.0 .. basicly, I'm looking for
documentation on usage..
Thanks in advance!
