For my python binding to evhttp (temporarily called fapws2 http://www.opensource4you.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=fapws2;a=summary), I would like to implement the concept of virtual host.
Is there anyone having expertise with that within libevent ? I'm thinking to add it within the http structure. Indeed, an uri is always coupled with a virtual host. Then the evhttp_dispatch_callback need to check the uri AND the virtualhost against the HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR environment variable (in case of proxy) or the req->remote_host. To be backward compatible, an empty virtualhost means that the uri is always valid. Unfortunately this is quite invasive within the libevent code. If I'm not wrong the following calls must be adapted: evhttp_free evhttp_set_cb evhttp_del_cb evhttp_set_gencb Does the core developers will accept to port it in the trunk of libevent ? Is there a better way to do it ?
