It isn't... not least because a single application might be handling requests from different virtual hosts and different ports, any web server that WSAPI supports can run in this configuration. You are going to have to manually add these things to your application, or read them from a config file (which you can write on the first request if it does not exist, if you want to automate the creation of this file). > Cheers, > Thijs -- Fabio Mascarenhas _______________________________________________ Kepler-Project mailing list Kepler-Project@lists.luaforge.net http://lists.luaforge.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kepler-project http://www.keplerproject.org/
