We use the latest embperl 1.xxx release on linux. I have created a
handler to do authentication before the embperl handler is run. This new
handler needs to read data from the post each request. However once read
is called on the Apache object you cannot call it again. This in turns
cripples embperl because it no longer has the post data. Is there any
way to be able to read the post data from multiple handlers?
If you are part of the filter stack, you can 'sniff' - read ahead and set
aside - the data coming in from the client. Other filters installed after
your filter will repeatedly call, and you return the set-aside data.
You can look at the apreq2 library with httpd-2 to assist you with this.
