Set-Cookie
I have a doubt about ho to set multiple cookies. I'm using apache 2.2 and in my module handler I'm trying to set two different cookies with: apr_table_set(r-headers_out, Set-Cookie, co); apr_table_set(r-headers_out, Set-Cookie, co1); It seems that the second instruction override the first one. So my question: how can I set two cookies in my module? Best regards Marco

load mod_php.so for each child separately
Hi, If I am correct, on Linux all childs in MPM prefork share the same mod_php.so which is loaded in the parent process. Is there a way to load mod_php.so separately for each forked child? Can I force such a thing in httpd.conf or maybe in the child_init() hook in a module? Cheers, Andrej
Writing CPP Modules (or C, but using CPP libraries)
Is there a prescribed method for writing CPP Modules (or C, but use CPP libraries)? I followed Zachary Miller's Cookbook for writing C++ modules (http://www.zarfmouse.us/apache-cplusplus/), but it is somewhat dated and wasn't as clean as I would have hoped. I found mod_cplusplus (http://modcplusplus.sourceforge.net/) - module to facilitate writing C++ modules/filters. It hasn't been updated since early 2007, so I'm not sure if it mature/stable. Thoughts? Thanks, Erik
HTTP pipelining in keep-alive requests
Hi all, For a small project I'm working on (a Java-UPNP server) I'm trying to replicate some Apache functions, and there is one I can't figure out on my own (I looked at the code but I didn't understand how it works). Let's assume the httpd receives the following pipelined requests (WITHOUT content-lenght header): |-- from here --| POST /endpoint HTTP/1.1 User-Agent: Xenon Connection: Keep-alive Host:192.168.1.40 soapbla bla bla/soapGET /description HTTP/1.1 User-Agent: Xenon Connection: Keep-alive Host:192.168.1.40 |-- to here --| I noticed that somehow the webserver is able to detect the second request, even if theoretically the second get could be part of the first put, how does it work? How does apache figure out when the first PUT is complete? Does apache consider new lines, new packets, or delays? Or does it only consider the socket content? Thanks a lot for everything that could help me duplicate this... ;-) Andrea

something I'm in a relative hurry to get feedback on is this part:
2. retain data
How can MPMs retain data across unload of the DSO?
s-process-server_pool userdata
won't work as-is because there's no server_rec in the pre_config hook.
Is there a need for an API here? As opposed to the MPM working with
its own file-scope static variables, for instance?
File-scope static variables don't work for DSOs (for data retained across
unload/reload) since the variables are re-instantiated at reload.
That led to the following idiom in quite a few modules:
const char *userdata_key = rewrite_init_module;
apr_pool_userdata_get(data, userdata_key, s-process-pool);
if (!data) {
first_time = 1;
apr_pool_userdata_set((const void *)1, userdata_key,
apr_pool_cleanup_null, s-process-pool);
}
(This is a simple use with just a flag.)
That's more gory than it needs to be, and MPMs needed this capability in the
pre-config hook, when there is no s-process-pool; hence the need for a
change.
Proposal: Add ap_set_retained_data(key, value),
ap_get_retained_data(key) APIs
(implementation detail: it will set/get userdata on pglobal)
Although not necessary, provide ap_get_config_count()
(better name!) to
indicate how many passes of config have completed. (The
interface could be
a global variable, but some third-party module would
inevitably clear it.)
Looks fine, if there is indeed a need for it.
Cool... Note that the final (working) interface is a bit different, where
ap_set_retained_data takes key + length, allocates the space, and returns
the address to the caller.

Re: [PATCH] mod_dbd with more than one pool
Ronald Park wrote: I did have one minor nit to pick with the implementation of the DBDInitSQL command. A user might presume that the order of commands listed in the config file would be preserved when the commands are run. By using a hash table, you'll likely get a random order causing problems. For example, perhaps the user needs to first load one table then choose a subset from that first table to file another; if you run them in the reserve order, the second table will likely be empty. :( Thanks for the comment -- noted in PR #46827.

mod_lua: package.loaded == apache2 (bug)
The function apl_load_apache2_lmodule, which is meant to load the
apache2 library is flawed in that it loads the library into the
package.loaded table and sets this as the global apache2. It should
load it into a new table, and set this as the global apache2 and
package.loaded.apache2. What follows is a small test script which
shows this (all tests _should_ pass, but most of the apache2 ones do
not). Also attached is a patch which fixes this.
begin code sample
function handle(req)
local function assert(test)
local status = loadstring('return '.. test)()
req:write(test ..': '.. (status and pass or FAIL) ..'\n')
end
-- control tests
assert [[string == require string]]
assert package.loaded.math == math
-- apache2 tests
assert [[apache2 == require apache2]]
assert package.loaded.apache2 == apache2
assert package.loaded ~= apache2
assert apache2.apache2 == nil
assert apache2.OK ~= nil
assert package.loaded.apache2.OK ~= nil

Re: [Problem] Not able to Link APR to my programs
Well thnx guys... I tried, as proposed by various users and developers in response to my query, using the -Ipath of apr-$installedversion-config. That too did not work. Finally I managed to serve my purpose using gcc command, executing apr-$installedversion-config file (ie apr-1-config installed in /usr/local/apr/bin in my case). I use this file to print the options required for complition using APR library. Lately I realized that, I have mistaken your advice being a novice. Here is a snapshot of what I used: *[r...@a104cc-user86 bin]# gcc $(./apr-1-config --includes) $(./apr-1-config --libs) $(./apr-1-config --link-ld) $(./apr-1-config --cflags) $(./apr-1-config --cppflags) /cat.c * You people suggested to add same thing, what i have added to my command (but in a bit different way)... Nick Kew wrote an excellent book on Apache 2 modules; the old Writing Apache Modules in Perl and C is still somewhat relevant as well. I would like to know if some one can help me with material on programming with APR. Thnx alot guys...

Ideas for content-aware filter modules for 2.4
Following the BoF, I'll put down a brief marker on-list on the theme of content-awareness. More when I'm back home and not totally knackered. We have handling of certain important encodings: SSL and compression (albeit not quite bug-free) as standard in current versions. I'd be interested to expand that with some new filter modules. 1. Character Encoding. We have very limited capability in mod_charset_lite. We can expand that to support automatic detection of charset, and either setting a request field or transforming to a selected charset. We can also provide an API for modules to configure this, in cases where more than one transformation is wanted. A real-life use case for this is where users of libxml2-based modules such as mod_proxy_html need to use charsets other than utf-8, and particularly charsets that are not supported by libxml2. 2. Generic XML support. In mod_xmlns, a SAX2 parser parses XML to a stream of SAX events. Events are keyed on namespace, and application modules can register handlers for a namespace. A good illustrative use case was my parser for the ESI (Edge-side includes) namespace. I've also used it to generate HTML and RDF from a common source: a task you might otherwise use XSLT for, at a much higher performance cost. I also hacked it to support scripting and embedded SQL queries, but that's a line I don't see as so interesting, because it gets us into the territory of well-established alternatives including PHP and JSP. Joachim Zobel's mod_xml2 abstracts this further by defining SAX event buckets (e.g. startElement bucket) and passing them down the filter chain. We could build on the same approach to pass DOM or similar nodes as buckets for applications like XSLT. If we use expat for this, we avoid introducing any new dependencies. 3. Data type library. Our filter architecture works well for tasks such as (some) image processing. I don't think that's something we want to do too much of in core, but it might add something if we provided some basics, such as encoding/decoding of the regular Web image formats (gif/jpeg/png, and svg using xmlns dispatch). A similar approach might apply more widely to other media. I can contribute some of this from my existing work, including relicensing where necessary. That is, if there's interest in adding some of these things as standard in 2.4. -- Nick Kew

I'm not pushing to 'break' netware, but rather, deciding to do once it is broken. The situation is very similar to Wk2 and NT4SP6 which are abandoned, but in theory might work for 90% of the cases. Do we work to preserve them, or work to recover them if we break them, or do we truly bother either way? Bill
