hi all
joe schaefer suggested on modperl@ that having access to apr_brigade_flatten might be of use. at least in the context of Apache::Request::Upload you could use
my $upload_data = $req->upload('file')->bb->flatten;
to essentially slurp up the file without iterating the brigade manually.
I'm not sure about how this would fit into filters, since I guess there are multiple brigades, but I'm not sure.
anyway, any arguments against opening it up? (with tests, of course :)
I certainly have no objections to opening up the entire APR API if someone needs it. And most of the APR::(Brigade|Bucket) API is needed in filters.
I've already replied to Joe, that I think apreq2 shouldn't expose the bucket brigade interface or at least have a simple alternative method which will do all the work behind the scenes (which also removes the immediate need for flatten, since there is the C API for that).
