I was able to get it to compile as a shared module under Apache 1.3b6
under both Debian 1.3.1 (libc5) w/JDK1.1.5v7 and Debian pre-2.0
(libc6) w/JDK1.1.5-v5g. There are instructions in the README.DSO file
in the Apache 1.3b6 source distribution with examples of how to
configure external modules. That worked well, except I had to change
a good deal of function names from functionXXX to ap_functionXXX (I
assume Apache underwent namespace policy changes recently). I noticed
that there is a compatibility header with #defines from the old names
to the new ones, so that may be another approach.
Now if I can only figure out how the !#$!@#!!& classloader works in
jserv, because it seems to be wreaking havoc with my attempts to use
JPL (Larry Wall's hybrid Java-Perl language) in servlets. The shared
libraries load correctly, but I get UnsatisfiedLinkErrors trying to
call things in them.
