Re: apreq release

That was my knee-jerk reaction, too, but after digging, I saw that win32
really shouldn't be affected.

Re: apreq release

Yes, if we go through with this.  The mod_apreq2 stuff is in httpd.
However I just realized that although it's been in trunk for years now,
it's never been backported to the 2.4.x branch.  I'm not sure why, and
my google-fu isn't finding relevant discussion on dev@httpd.

When I initially took a look yesterday, I thought I'd looked at a 2.4
release.  Can someone from the mod_perl dev community tell me if new
releases (intended for httpd 2.4) come from trunk or from the httpd24
branch?  If it's from the branch, then the apreq stuff could be moved to
trunk (or a submodule, like Apache::Reload and friends if desired).  If
trunk, then until mod_apreq is backported to httpd 2.4 (or httpd bumps
versions and rebranches off of trunk)

All looks good here on Win32 - the current SVN version passes all
tests using VC++ 2010, perl-5.25.3, mod_perl-2.0.10 and either
httpd-2.2.31 or httpd-2.4.23. (Whatever the httpd-2.4 incompatibility
was seems not to affect anything on Win32!)

Re: apreq release

[Issac Goldstand]

Given that the C was (finally) merged into httpd years ago, and given
that there are no proposed code changes, I'd say that's not such a bad
idea...

I've become a bit rusty in Perl (and even with apreq) over the years,
but IIRC, all of the Perl glue is in
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/apreq/trunk/glue/perl/

I'll take a crack at seeing if I can fold it into mod_perl despite the rust.

Re: apreq release

[Issac Goldstand]

Honestly, I've no clue.  The plan is just to add a few checks with
mod_version (if available) to deal with the 2.2/2.4 config syntax
changes, and the changes so far seem to only be in the test suite.  I
haven't hit any changes in libapreq itself yet.

I don't have any connection with the Debian maintainers, but if someone
on these lists does and has interest, they're welcome to update
following the ANNOUNCE message post-release.

Good news!! No idea why apreq hasn't just been merged into mod_perl after
all these years.
