Hi,
For a project of mine I had to have an embedded webserver with php
support. For this I've used the boost::asio multi-threaded example as
a base and modified it so I could enable php scripting support. The
first, logical and fast thing to do was to try out the embed sapi
module but I found it to hang on concurrent php_embed_init calls.
The biggest issue I found was that the embedded module bundles sapi
module startup and request startup. I ended up writing my own SAPI
module as I also needed full support for POST methods, URL queries,
etc. but I can imagine people being interested in having an embedded
sapi which separates module startup/shutdown and request startup/
shutdown so concurrency works together with being able to have
separate request environments for each thread.
Separating these calls would allow for the following:
At program startup initialize the php environment
At each thread startup initialize a php request environment
With a few minor alterations I could convert my specific sapi module
or current embed module to a generic embed-mt multithread capable
module.
Would this be something that you are interested in?
kind regards,
Bas van Beek
