Re: proxy_balancer_method

[Jim Jagielski]

I must be missing it, but I don't see the diff between the below and
what is in mod_proxy.h in trunk...

Hi,

I would like to change the proxy_balancer_method to the following:
+++
struct proxy_balancer_method {
   const char *name;            /* name of the load balancer method*/
   proxy_worker *(*finder)(proxy_balancer *balancer,
                           request_rec *r);
   apr_status_t (*reset)(proxy_balancer *balancer, server_rec *r);
   apr_status_t (*age)(proxy_balancer *balancer, server_rec *r);
   void            *context;   /* general purpose storage */
};
+++

I want to call the reset from the child_init of mod_proxy_balancer, to create(or not) the workers the way the balancer logic need them. Additionally the age has no reason to be called to during a request (even if we will probably call it during a request in httpd-2.2.x if we port that to httpd-2.2.x).

Comments?

Cheers
