>Release: 1.3b2
>Environment:
Windows NT4SP3, VC++5, perl 5.00404, mod_perl-1.05
>Description:
To get full functionality from mod_perl, it needs to get access to the
basic_http_header routine. This routine is not exported from the DLL. As
indicated in the following section, it is needed for mod_perl :
#ifdef WIN32
croak("Apache->basic_http_header() not supported under Win32!");
#else
basic_http_header(r);
#endif
Without this, mod_perl does not get thru its selftest.
>How-To-Repeat:
Not easy. Install mod_perl-1.05. Remove the #ifdef Win32 sequence which blocks
usage of the routine under Win32. Apply half a dozen patches to the test
scripts to see it working. Contact me for more details.
>Fix:
To get to the basic_http_header routine replace the following in
/usr/src/apache-1.3b2/src/main/http_protocol.c and
/usr/src/apache-1.3b2/src/main/http_protocol.h
<void basic_http_header(request_rec *r)
