RE: Stacked Handlers and passing Objects
I think what you are looking for is available in the pnotes() method it isn't documented in the book, but a recent version of mod_perl and perldoc Apache should be able to help you, now that you know what to look for... --Geoff -Original Message- From: Bill Desjardins [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 1999 1:06 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Stacked Handlers and passing Objects Hello Everyone, I have been lurking for a while, but this is my first post. I started programming perl about a year ago and have no other programming experience, so please forgive me if this is way out of scope. And yes, I have searched the archives and I have the apache modules book, but I did not find a clear answer to this question. My website that I am developing (web.carracing.com) uses 4 stacked handlers for each section of the site. The only one that changes is the 3rd handler for the content of the page. here is one of the configs: Location /Racing_Links SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Apache_Car::Authen Apache_Car::Start_Page Apache_Car::Racing_Links Apache_Car::End_Page Options ExecCGI /Location The site is completely dynamic with not one page of html besides some templates I parse myself. The module Apache_Car::Authen is what I use to determine access and layout of every page requested. When a user logs in, Apache_Car::Authen then gets his/her personal data from a MySQL Database which is then used to layout the site to their personal prefs. Currently, I can use $r-notes and that works fine, but what I would like to do is use an module I have written and then just pass the object to the later stacked handlers so that the later handlers can grab necessary data from the objects methods. I gues the reason I want to do this is because when the member is authenticated, It would be easier and quicker to get the data from the DB and leave it in the object hash for the later modules. Again, please let me know if I am way off base with this thinking and a pointer to some examples of a better way would be much appreciated.
