delay_access and rep_mime_type
Hello, I would like to have a delay pool for all the heavy multimedia downloading(and I'm sure I'm the only one). But rep_mime_type won't work with delay_access, are there any plans to have delay pools working with reply data streams? I saw that someone has a patch, but didn't saw the code: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg53924.html -- Nicolás Velásquez O. Genève, Suisse Mobile +41.797976460
Re: delay_access and rep_mime_type
I'm still trying to finish off the work before committing it to Squid-2.HEAD. Just be a little more patient! :/ Adrian 2008/8/11 Nicolás Velásquez O.

Re: delay_access and rep_mime_type
2008/8/12 Nicolás Velásquez O. [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Also, after some thinking about delay pools concept, I thought that it would be interesting to have shared pools. Say that you have 12Mbps of I agree having shared/hierarchical pools is a nifty idea. It'd be a bit horrible to implement given the current code structure (in -2 and/or -3) so quite a bit of thought would need to first be given to how best organise things.. Adrian
Re: Environment to build a squid helper
Unfortunately there is only Guido woring on his sparetime (the little he have) on the Windows port of Squid, which means there is very limited support for Visual Studio. For some reason using later versions does not work out well and is why Squid is still using that old and now end-of-life compiler version. It is unclear to me if that's due to Squid or oddness of Visual Studio triggered by Squid.. But it should build just fine in MinGW+MSYS. Instructions there should be the same as for UNIX. 1. Install MinGW + MSYS and the other required tools (perl, awk, maybe more.. you'll notice whats missing when trying the next step). 2. Start a MSYS shell and do the rest from there tar jxf squid-xxx.tar.bz2 cd squid-xxx ./configure ... [with the configure flags you need] make [stop here if you just want one of the helpers.. copy it manually in such case] make install Regards Henrik On tis, 2008-08-05 at 10:09 +0100, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear Squid Dev, I got stuck over a modify of a Squid´s helper.The installation of squid in windows environment to protect a server is a project I´m bringing up for my final exam at university in collaboration with a company. My aim is to modify mswin_check_ad_group. c for making request to the DC only of a specified domain and, from the code, create an executable to substitute the old helper in squidNT to let it run in my windows network environment. I already tried many solutions, with some advices from Guido Serassio said me I should be more patient (but unfortunately the time is against me) and I should use visual studio 6 to get the autogeneration of an header I miss (default_config_file.h). Just the visual studio 6 is no more avialble like the 2008 I´m using now. I tried with MinGW and MSYS but I cannot manage to go through and have an output .exe of the helper. I choosed Squid for his flexibility, cause works great as application proxy and, above all, cause is opensource and I thought I could manage to change the code but now I got stuck with the modify of the helper I have to implement for our needs. Are only two lines of code to change, but to bring up the environment and to procede with the changes is getting quite complicated and I´m a bit lost. If you could be so kind to help me and give me some instructions for my procedure I would be really thanksful. Please respond to my e-mail. Looking forward for an answer, Best Regards Antonio signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Re: Making start/stop idempotent

Currently, Squid will return 1 if a squid process is already running (upon start) and when there isn't one (upon -k shutdown). I'm writing a patch to change this behaviour, and the most reasonable way to do it seems to be with a command-line option; I've somewhat arbitrarily chosen -p. Does this seem reasonable? If so, I'll submit a patch shortly. I would be happy with not needing an option to have idempotent start-and-stop behaviour; we could use an option to preserve the current behaviour (though that doesn't seem particularly useful). -Rob -- GPG key available at: http://www.robertcollins.net/keys.txt. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
