sorry about that.
No problem, but it really would be great if the equivalent
of "Writing Apache modules with Perl and C" by Lincoln
Stein and Doug MacEachern or of your wonderful work
"modperl: Developer's cookbook" existed for modperl2 as
well. That's what I actually meant, but maybe I expressed
myself not so clearly...
well, homework exists for a reason, and perl.apache.org
is your friend.
This is why I am so proud to work under an opensource
environment! :)
nope, but you have lots of reading to do. I'd suggest
one of the books from
the mod_perl site to get your started understanding
apache basics.
In this regard, just to show that I didn't chatter for
nothing, and to point out once again what I feel the need
for, I have another (hopefully harmless) question:
I tried to rewrite for the new 2.0 API the nice
Apache::MIME package from chapter 8 of "Writing Apache
Modules..."
(http://files.printf.dk/docs/apache_perl/98.htm#BIN210);
it also uses customized directives, so that one can
completely switch off mod_mime.c and have all of
mod_mime's directives handled by the package itself. BUT
the authors maybe forgot one directive: AddOutputFilter,
which is handled by mom_mime. I have in my httpd.conf a
line: `AddOutputFilter Includes html` (which is pretty
standard for new error docs handling in Apache 2.0.x). My
question now is: what do I write in my type handler in
order to add an output filter that is exactly equivalent
to Apache's INCLUDES compiled-in filter?
$r->add_output_filter(\&callback): but what is the
callback for an Apache's standard filter?
IMHO an answer to such a question cannot yet be found
neither in perl.apache.org docs nor in existing modperl
books.
But nevertheless I don't want to sound bold, maybe I am
just wrong.
Thx again.
