I don't know if this is a bug, or if I don't understand how bucket
brigades work. I have some code which does the following:
$r->print( "First" );
$r->sendfile( "/any/file" );
$r->print( "Last" );
This Produces:
<the contents of /any/file>
First
Last
I thought it should produce:
First
<the contents of /and/file>
Last
When I add an $r->rflush immediately before the sendfile the behavior is
as I expect, but should the rflush be required?
I am running perl 5.8.3, httpd 2.0.49 and have seen this behavior in
1.99_12 and 1.99_14.
Yes, there is a discrepancy between print() and sendfile(), the latter,
implemented by Apache, has no idea we are buffering IO on the modperl
side. So it's probably a good idea to fix the modperl sendfile wrapper
to call rflush, to have it DWIM.
Now it's in cvs.
