I have a handler which is called by Apache. The handler loads a
module which has all the real subroutines within it that are
executed. Ordinarily, a simple @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK would provide
the subroutines to the handler, but when Apache does the handoff, the
PACKAGE name from the handler does not follow into the module
subroutine, rather it is identified as Apache::Blah
i.e.
#handler
package MyHandler;
use Module qw(sub1 sub2);
use Apache;
use vars qw(@ISA)
@ISA = qw (Module Apache);
calling sub1 from apache
using THIS handler named "MyHandler" results in Module::sub1
identifing the "caller" as Apache.
what is desired can be accomplished by
package MyHandler;
use Module
use Apache;
use vars qw(@ISA)
@ISA = qw (Module Apache);
sub sub1 {
return Module::sub1{@};
}
now Module correctly identifies the caller as "MyHandler"
there are many routines in "Module", there ought to be a better way
to do this. Any ideas would be appreciated.
One thought I had was to use a series of pointers
\*sub1 = *routine;
etc...
where & routine would identify the subroutine called. However, I
don't know how to id the subr call.
