Dear fellow Tcl'ers
rivet-2.2.1 was released and it's available for download from the ASF
distribution mirrors. This version of Rivet includes the few features we
discussed about on this list
New Tcl commands
New command "::rivet::redir URL ?permanent?" was introduced. The command
achieves the same function of ::rivet::headers redirect <URL> but it
extends it triggering the execution of the AbortScript script when
defined. The command builds a dictionary carrying 2 keys storing the
reason for the abort (error_code) and URL the browser is diverted to.
This code can be fetched with command ::rivet::abort_code
New command ::rivet::header sent returns 1 if HTTP have been sent
already because either the output buffer was filled or command flush
stdout was executed
New command ::rivet::headers get returns the value of an HTTP output
header mod_rivet internal changes and build system improvements
Configuration of the package was extended by adding a new
--with-apu-config macro that allows fine control over the location of
apr-util include files (contributed by Poor Yorick)
New directive SeparateChannels allow finer control over Rivet internal
channels. I/O handling is done in mod_rivet by creating a single channel
per child process. This is true also if SeparateVirtualInterp is set,
thus reducing the amount of memory allocated for channel descriptors and
buffers.This is good for most common usages of Rivet because it's
unlikely that applications will tamper with the channel parameters.
Anyway if you're deploying mod_rivet in an environment where different
applications need to have full control over channels setting the
directive you restore previous mod_rivet policy. This option has effect
only if SeparateVirtualInterp is set
