great! While we are at it. I've placed the implementation into modperl_perlio.c|h and xs/APR/IO/APR_IO.h. Is that OK? >>so the only thing it misses is $r|$s, which can be: >> >> open my $fh, $r, ... >> > > that should be easy with modperl_sv2pool, right? yup >>I'm not sure how to handle the best the forwarding of any errors from >>APR's side to Perl side.

Perl's SETERRNO accepts special predefined errcode perl-current/perl.h:# define SETERRNO(errcode,vmserrcode) (errno = (errcode)) I guess I'll post soon the working protototype without handling the errors and then we will see what's the best way to handle the errors. _____________________________________________________________________ Stas Bekman JAm_pH -- Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide http://perl.apache.org/guide mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ticketmaster.com http://apacheweek.com http://singlesheaven.com http://perl.apache.org http://perlmonth.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
