Hello,
I am trying to set up Apache::RPC::Server (RPC-XML-0.58) under MP2 (MP
2.0.2 + Apache 2.0.55 on Solaris 10 SPARC). This module was written to
the MP1 API, therefore I'm loading Apache2::compat as the first 'use'
statement in my server startup.pl. However, the module makes use of
Apache->server, which apparently is not exposed by the compatibility
module. Is there any way for me to use Apache::RPC::Server as provided
by the author (some tweak to provide compatibility), or am I going to
have to port this module to MP2 to get it to run?
In the event that I have to port, I have an additional question about
how best to migrate. The RPC::Server code does the following (essentially):
$R = Apache->server;
$path = $R->location;
$debug = $R->dir_config("RpcDebugLevel");
$Raux = (ref($R) eq 'Apache') ? $R->server : $R;
$host = $Raux->server_hostname;
$port = $Raux->port;
What is the correct way to get the above information using Apache2::
objects? The above code is called during initialization, not as a
request handler, so I don't have access to a RequestRec.
My assumptions are as follows:
$R = Apache2::ServerUtil->server;
$Q = Apache2::RequestUtil->request; (??? -- no +GlobalRequest)
$path = $Q->location;
$debug = $Q->dir_config->get("RpcDebugLevel");
$Raux = (ref($R) eq 'Apache2::ServerRec')
? Apache2::ServerUtil->server : $R;
$host = $Q->server_hostname;
$port = $Q->port;
Any pointers or suggestions are warmly welcomed.
Thanks in advance,
Cory.
