calling C extensions to Apache through mod_perl

2000-09-06 Thread Dave DeMaagd 

Here's what I'm looking at: 

- Writing mod_foo as a dso for apache
- Have perl running under mod_perl
- Want to make calls to to functions in mod_foo from the perl scripts

I know how to do the first two, but I'm not getting anywhere on where
to get the third.  Am I just missing something really obvious.  

Thanks!

You could either use notes as a message passing mechanism, or write some
XS code and call the functions directly.
