Re: Mason vs embperl
So I installed and compared. I preferred the syntax of Mason, the flexible way to build components, the caching ... it have to be said here that I choose Mason ... I agree, the caching is very good and one gets up and running in no time with Mason. However, I find it imposes too much of a coding style to the programmer : for example, all pages are evaluated inside the same package and thus one cannot define two normal subroutines with the same name in two different pages. -- Tout n'y est pas parfait, mais on y honore certainement les jardiniers Dominique Quatravaux [EMAIL PROTECTED]

NAME
Apache::Singleton - Singleton class for mod_perl
SYNOPSIS
package Printer;
use base qw(Apache::Singleton);
# just the same as Class::Singleton
DESCRIPTION
Apache::Singleton works the same as Class::Singleton, but clears the
singleton out on each request.
This module checks $ENV{MOD_PERL}, so it just works well in non-mod_perl
environment.

Re: Tips tricks needed :)
(sorry to break threading but I'm getting this from multiple lists)
that IE 6 (beta at the time) considered my cookies to be third party
because I used frame-based domain redirection and by default would not
accept them.
You need to include a P3P header in your HTTP header that contains a
Compact Policy (CP) - a geek code of what your P3P xml privacy document
contains. See http://www.w3c.org/P3P/.
Some research I did seems to indicate that current implementations of IE6
will accept cookies no matter what CP you use (rather than checking it
against your security settings and deciding if the CP represents a
privacy policy that violates your chosen level of disclosure.) I'd really
appreciate it other people could check this and confirm that IE6 is not
offering any actual privacy level protection and is just discriminated
against people that don't have P3P headers.
My (Profero's) module for automagically converting a P3P document (the
xml) into a CP (the geek-code version of that xml document) is in beta
here:
http://twoshortplanks.com/temp/P3P-ToCP-0.02.tar.gz
Please test, break and get back to me when it doesn't work. It just
follows the spec and uses XML::XPath to pull the stuff out.
Later
Mark.

I tried a few header combinations before I got IE6 to send cookies in frames where one frame is an external site, so it is parsing the header, not just requiring its existence. I'm not sure if it actually looks at a users settings to determine if the policy is acceptable based on user prefs.

I don't know much about the caching directives and haven't tried them out, so I can't provide any guidance there. The AccelCacheRoot directive sets the number of levels of subdirectories in the cache. 16 first level subdirectories named 0 .. f and 256 second level subdirectories named 00 .. ff are used by default (i.e. AccelCacheRoot path 1 2). Since I'm not caching, my config above does not specify any directory hashing (i.e. AccelCacheRoot path 1). AccelCacheRoot allow to set up to 3 levels of two type subdirectories - named 0 .. f and 00 .. ff. Also AccelCacheRoot has parameter 'noauto' that specify do not create automaticaly all nested subdirectories. They shoud be created before with create_cache script.

Re: Tips tricks needed :)
By the way, is there a perl module to do calculations with money? We use Math::BigInt to do fixed point. We couldn't get the other math modules to work a few years back. Our wrapper (Bivio::Type::Number) normalizes the rounding and allows subclasses to specify precision, decimals, min, max, etc. It's not fast, but fast enough. :-) It's part of bOP, which is available under the Artistic license from http://www.bivio.biz/hm/download-bOP We don't do too much math in the database, i.e. with PL/SQL and such. One thing we have done which has really helped is to define the sign of all amounts/quantities so that we can use SQL's SUM() function. Our database is normalized, which speeds development and reduces bugs. Using SUM() keeps queries fast (100MS) even processing ~1K rows to produce a portfolio. Cheers, Rob

File handle, STDOUT, help
Please forgive me if this is in the documentation somewhere. I have been
unable to find it. Also, please note, although I am not a novice at
Perl, the more interesting uses of file handles, STDOUT, redirection and
such are over my head.
I'm having a problem with a mod_perl app I'm working on. The goal is to
have a mod_perl app that zips up a bunch of files, and sends it to you,
without creating any temporary files (The zips could get huge). I have
it working, but the way I'm doing it, the number of bytes downloaded is
not logged (well, it shows 5 bytes downloaded for a multi megabyte zip).
I understand this, because I'm writing directly to the socket. What I
don't understand is how to work around the problem...
Here's the important segment of my code (Much cut out):
sub handler {
my $r = shift;
my $c = $r-connection;
my $fd = $c-fileno();
my $io = new IO::Handle;
$io-fdopen ( $fd, w );
$io-autoflush(1);
$zip-writeToFileHandle($io, 0);
$io-close;
I'm using Archive::Zip to zip the files up. It requires a file handle to
write out to (or an actual file, but I don't want any temp files, I want
to create zips on the file, and send them directly to the end user).
The end goal: send the zip file, without using temp files, and log the
size downloaded through normal apache logging (I have custom logging
handler to log the info to a database, but the normal access log is
showing only 5 bytes downloaded too).

mixing cgi-bin mod_perl
The scenario: There are two folders /cgi-binwith plain perl cgi /mod-perl with Apache::Registry scripts The application is being moved from cgi to mod_perl (Apache::Registry) one script at a time. My friend has a strange idea. He wants to mix cgi-bin mod_perl by testing all of the scripts in cgi-bin and putting one cgi-script at a time into mod-perl folder. He wants to do this internaly in Apache, changing the request for a particular script so for example when you reference /cgi-bin/some_scr.pl you actually end with /mod-perl/some_scr.pl. He doesn't want to change the a href code from html files to stop pointing at /cgi-bin. By moving all of them one at a time all of the application will eventually end up working under mod_perl. How can he do that ? He thought of using mod_proxy or mod_rewrite. The scripts are badly written and have been developed for three years so far by various perl programmers.

He doesn't want to change the a href code from html files to stop pointing at /cgi-bin. By moving all of them one at a time all of the application will eventually end up working under mod_perl. How can he do that ? When he's still renaming the files he could do something like: Alias /cgi-bin/script1.pl /mod-perl/script1.pl And when he has moved them all just move the directory so it works from the original directory. -- Thomas Eibner http://thomas.eibner.dk/ DnsZone http://dnszone.org/ mod_pointer http://stderr.net/mod_pointer
Re: mixing cgi-bin mod_perl
He wants to mix cgi-bin mod_perl by testing all of the scripts in cgi-bin and putting one cgi-script at a time into mod-perl folder. A very simple way to do this is to use Location directives to add them to PerlRun one at a time: Location /cgi-bin/some_scr.pl SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Apache::PerlRun Options +ExecCGI #optional PerlSendHeader On ... /Location Location /cgi-bin/some_other_scr.pl SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Apache::PerlRun Options +ExecCGI #optional PerlSendHeader On ... /Location These directives will override the broader directives for /cgi-bin/. You could use mod_macro (or Perl sections) to avoid all the duplicated typing. - Perrin

The scenario:
There are two folders
/cgi-binwith plain perl cgi

He thought of using mod_proxy or mod_rewrite.
The scripts are badly written and have been developed for three years
so far by various perl programmers.
I'd use mod_rewrite or, even better, use the power of the
PerlTransHandler.. Activate the following handler by adding
PerlTransHandler Moo::my_trans_handler
to your httpd.conf. In your example it will check for
/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/some_scr.pl_mod_perl_me
If that file exists we rewrite the URL to use the /mod-perl prefix
internally.
sub Moo::my_trans_handler {
my $r = shift;
my $uri = $r-uri;
return DECLINED unless ($uri =~ s,^/cgi-bin/,,);
if (-f /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/${uri}_mod_perl_me) {
$uri = = /mod-perl/$uri
$r-uri(/mod-perl/$uri);
}
return DECLINED;
}

What phase am I in?
I've looked through the mod_perl docs and guide and am unable to find something that I can use in a handler to figure out what the current phase is. This seems like such an obvious thing that I can't believe it doesn't exist. Therefore I will conclude that I'm completely blind.
