Re: Apache::DBI on mp2

[Stas Bekman]

FWIW, we are discussing the internal DBI pooling mechanism at the dbi-dev list 
and having already a sort-of-working prototype. So hopefully there will be no 
need for Apache::DBI in the near future, as DBI will be able to handle pooling 
internally. However it may take some time, as the drivers will have to adjust 
to support the new functionality.

mod_perl was built from CVS.

I was interested in getting Apache::DBI to run under mp2. I did read 
Ask's message at 
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-modperl&m=104225578207460&w=2
which leads me to my question. What would it take to get connect_on_init 
to run under mp2?

With the following patch I was able to get connect_on_init to work under 
mp2. Remember that my objective was to JUST get it to run. This is NOT 
release quality code. I'm happy to report that it works for me, so far. 
Anyone else who is running mp2 (no compat mode) willing to give it a try?
Of course, then the gurus can come in and clean up the code so that it 
works under either mp1 or mp2.
If you apply the following patch (will commit it soon) against the modperl-2.0 
source, you will be able to use connect_on_init unmodified, assuming that 
Apache::compat was loaded before Apache::DBI. Let me know whether it works for 
you.
