I'm no more able to use my wsgi python binding to libevent, because the evhttp_dispatch_callback ( or evhttp_handle_request) function is now static.
Indeed, as I've mentioned in my mail of "Sun, October 14, 2007 10:22 am", I've been forced to update this function. Because the function is not static, I'm able, with libevent-1.3 able to over-write it in my own code: Line 46 here http://www.opensource4you.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=fapws2;a=blob;f=fapws2/_evhttp.c;h=eb0cd0aebcb31b48874842335575827b89091596;hb=05ec30b72f106120d1aa2c7913ba609a1a1fe4a4 This is no more possible with libevent-1.4. Thanks to provide possibilities for extension like mine. Or, if I'm not using libevent as it should be, thanks to provide me a better way. Thanks PS: I remind here that my goal is to call a callback based on the start of the url. For example, if I have a callback associated to the url:/static/, all the following urls will trigger this call back: /static/img/logo.png /static/css/main.css /static/js/hello.js As specified in the wsgi specs ( www.wsgi.org), and url is composed of different elements: url = quote(environ.get('SCRIPT_NAME','')) url += quote(environ.get('PATH_INFO','')) if environ.get('QUERY_STRING'): url += '?' + environ['QUERY_STRING'] In my first example associated variable will be: environ['SCRIPT_NAME']="/static/", environ["PATH_INFO"]="img/logo.png", and environ["QUERY_STRING"]="". > Hi everyone, > > I am pleased to announce the release of libevent-1.4.0-beta.
