I haven't made a proper diff, nor the cleanups, but if you copy the files
from:
http://calvin.ics.hro.nl/~jeroen/apache2/apache_2.0.32-winnt-ipv6.zip
And extract them on top of the apache 2.0.32 alpha/beta tarball and
compile it should work. This _does_ however require the IPv6 headers
supplied by either the platform preview
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/sdks/platform/tpipv6.asp)
and or the newer SDK's. Simply build with the InstallBin targets etc and
it should all work out fine. The newer IPv6 stacks by MS automatically
detect IPv6 presence and use it if possible. This allows for a IPv6
enabled build which should be able to run on most NT's. I say NT's here as
the IPv6 stack for 9x/ME is unknown & untested for me.
Things I have to do to clean it up:
- fix the address copying (save_addrinfo goes wrong on me)
- put in many "#ifdef APR_HAVE_IPV6" lines.
- get rid of the debug stuff :)
You'll notice that the winnt_mpm now passes the listen_rec to winnt_accept()
This was the cleanest way in my opinion for it to get the address family.
There is also some weird magic, sockaddr_in6 is normally 24 bytes, but
when returned from getaddrinfo() it's always 28 hmm ;)
I'll probably have a stab on this tomorrow and pass in a diff to you guys ;)
If I am really lucky I will have my adsl line back tomorrow, carrying
printed code and using floppydisks isn't fun ;)... I got the sync.. now
they have to turn on provisioning...
Greets,
