Hi there,

I learned some about how to write a handler module from [1] and [2].
[1] http://blog.zhuzhaoyuan.com/2009/08/creating-a-hello-world-nginx-module/
[2] http://www.evanmiller.org/nginx-modules-guide.html#compiling

But I need to rewrite [1] to send dynamically generated octect stream to client with unknown content length but it'll be large usually. Firstly I tried:

    /* allocate a buffer for your response body */
    b = ngx_pcalloc(r->pool, sizeof(ngx_buf_t));
    if (b == NULL) {
        return NGX_HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR;
    }

    /* attach this buffer to the buffer chain */
    out.buf = b;
    out.next = NULL;

    /* adjust the pointers of the buffer */
    b->pos = ngx_hello_string;
    b->last = ngx_hello_string + sizeof(ngx_hello_string) - 1;
    b->memory = 1;    /* this buffer is in memory */
    b->last_buf = 0;  /* this is the last buffer in the buffer chain */

    /* set the status line */
    r->headers_out.status = NGX_HTTP_OK;
    //r->headers_out.content_length_n = sizeof(ngx_hello_string) - 1;

    /* send the headers of your response */
    rc = ngx_http_send_header(r);

    if (rc == NGX_ERROR || rc > NGX_OK || r->header_only) {
        return rc;
    }

    /* send the buffer chain of your response */
        int i;
for(i=1;i<10000000;i++){b->flush = (0==(i%1000));rc=ngx_http_output_filter(r, &out);if(rc!=NGX_OK){ngx_log_error(NGX_LOG_ALERT,r->connection->log,0,"bad rc, rc:%d", rc);return rc;}}
        b->last_buf = 1;
    return ngx_http_output_filter(r, &out);

But it simply fails with following errors:

2014/02/28 22:17:25 [alert] 25115#0: *1 zero size buf in writer t:0 r:0 f:0 00000000 080C7431-080C7431 00000000 0-0, client: 127.0.0.1, server: localhost, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", host: "localhost:8080" 2014/02/28 22:17:25 [alert] 25115#0: *1 bad rc, rc:-1, client: 127.0.0.1, server: localhost, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", host: "localhost:8080"


WHAT IS THE CORRECT WAY TO ACCOMPLISH MY NEED? (I searched a lot but I only found [3] which has rc=-2 rather than -1)

Thanks in advance!
