Of course, with DSOs there are some whole new lifetime issues to think about - it *is* difficult, no doubt about it. Nesting pools properly and avoiding "global" pools helps with constraining the DSO to its own little short-lived world. I'm not seeing anything at all here which needs changing in APR; just some application code which has not been designed in anticipation of being used from a DSO. That is really not something which can or should be fixed in APR. Regards, joe
