Erik,
I think you are mistaken. I'm not the expert on mod_rewrite, but I
believe it will not change anything *except* for the URL being
addressed. The "parameters" are not part of the URL in that sense, and
should not be affected (by parameters I mean the "query string", which
is everything after a "?" sign).
Neither will the method (GET/POST), HTTP headers etc.. unless you
specifically do something that would cause them to change.

Justin et al,
That is promising, but I can't alter any of the request parameters before the filter has a chance to record them.
I haven't tried this solution yet, but I believe URL rewriting will change the
request params to reflect the new target. This could work if my filter was run
before the URL rewriting, but I am using an output filter (e.g.
PerlOutputFilterHandler). I might be able to split my handler into input and
output handlers, but that approach will likely have consequences of it's own.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks for your time,
Erik

Hello,
I would like to direct requests for everything (cgi, pl, html, etc) under the
root directory to a single CGI. The catch is that I would like the parameters
to remain unchanged; passed to the single handler.
For example, for the following:
- /index.html
- /foo/fake.cgi
- /goo/moo/not-real-either.pl
- /another/faker.gif
I would like to invoke a single application (e.g. helloworld.cgi), but want to
retain the original request info (e.g. post/get, params, referrer,...).
I am trying to test (load/functionality) a custom filter and want to run
production access logs via JMeter. The logs contain a number of applications
that I don't have deployed, I just need something to respond to the request.
The filter inspects the request params, but doesn't care about the content of
the response. JMeter will want a 200 return code though.
Hope this is clear enough...
Cheers and thanks,
Erik
Unless I'm misunderstanding the task, a simple RewriteRule will
accomplish this.
RewriteRule .* /cgi-bin/helloworld.cgi [L]
