Well...  I must have been smoking crack, 'cause I seem to remember a

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
May be you haven't been importing the constant. These two aren't the same:

use Apache::Const qw(OK DECLINED);
use Apache::Const -compile = qw(OK DECLINED);
the latter only compiles the constants, the former compiles and imports it.

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
I've updated the online list.

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.
Since you now have the perms, you no longer need to get the blessing from the 
modules list. Simply go ahead and upload your module. First go to the PAUSE 
interface and check that you actually co-own the modules in question.

Also need to get excited about getting the authperlldap mod done as 
well... :)
;)

Here is the code:

BEGIN {
   if (MP2) {
   require Apache::Const;
   require Apache::Access;
   require Apache::Connection;
   require Apache::Log;
   require Apache::RequestRec;
   require Apache::RequestUtil;
   Apache::Const-import(-compile = 'HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED','OK');
   } else {
   require Apache::Constants;
   Apache::Constants-import('HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED','OK');
   }
}
(Or, variations upon it...)  As I've said, though, my code is dying with 
an error on Apache::Constants anymore  If I hit it again, I will 
post the error message that I was getting.

Just started working on Apache-AuthNTLM and came across the cross

Yup, in mod_perl 2.0 we should better use fully qualified constants, because 
now we have APR:: and Apache:: constants, hence the docs use this style 
everywhere. However the mp1's style works as well. Though I haven't checked 
whether there are any overlaps if the top level is removed.

Great, I've updated the online list of ported modules.

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 :

well, this is not a mod_perl issue. '=~' has a higher precedence than '?:'

Is 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
