Hi!
Just wanted to let everyone know that I have just finished porting the Apache-AuthExpire module to work with both modperl1 and 2. It is a: # Small mod_perl handler to provide Authentication phase time outs for
# sensitive areas, per realm.
There are some issues with konqueror, mozilla and netscape, but should be a simple fix if someone is watching the headers....
Great, I've updated the online list of ported modules.
Thanks :)
Possible documentation inclusion...?: When using a ternary conditional in conjunction with a conditional operator, I needed to enclose the statement with parentheses to force the ternary conditional to be executed first. For example:
my ($res, $sent_pw) = $r->get_basic_auth_pw;
return $res if $res != (MP2 ? Apache::OK : Apache::Constants::OK); # return not OK status if not OK
well, this is not a mod_perl issue. '=~' has a higher precedence than '?:'

Also, you don't realy have to do that. The old ala mp1 style works just fine.
use Apache::Const qw(OK DECLINED)
sub handler {
return OK;
}
Well... I must have been smoking crack, 'cause I seem to remember a simple:
return MP2 ? Apache::OK : OK
throwing an error, hence, the change to:
MP2 ? Apache::OK : Apache::Constants::OK
Now that I test it, though, there doesn't seem to be a problem... :P
Took me a while to catch that... :PIs J. J. Horner on this list? (Are you out there...? :)) ) If so, can you contact me about getting permissions to upload the Apache-AuthExpire mod that I have ported? (So it can be indexed by PAUSE.)

Also, Stas, is there a way that I can get around having to wait for an author to upload a ported module? I am not adding any functionality except making it work with both versions of modperl, and making additions that the CPAN testers have requested. I have a clear window for now, and would like to keep on porting mods while I have a little extra time...
You can always upload a module, however it won't be indexed and then it's going to be a pain to reindex, since you will have to ask Andreas to do that. So I'd get the permissions resolved first. If you can't reach the original author you should email [EMAIL PROTECTED] explaining the situation and asking to give you the right perms (nowadays CPAN supports co-owners of namespaces).
Meanwhile upload it somewhere online and post the link here, I'll link to it from: /http://perl.apache.org/products/apache-modules.html
Thanks. I have received that permission from Mr. Horner since I have written this email. I have contacted the [EMAIL PROTECTED] gang, but they haven't responded yet. (No problems, as I am about to start on Apache-AuthNTLM.) I will upload another version to CPAN when they give me authorization. :)
Also, I have ported:
Apache-AuthenPasswd Apache-AuthzPasswd
with notices as to the limitations of these modules. (I inherited these with the AuthenNIS mods... Haven't had a chance to port those yet, though.) They have been uploaded and indexed on CPAN.
Also need to get excited about getting the authperlldap mod done as well... :)
thanks, speeves cws
