Thanks Geoff. I am actually preparing a patch for mod_perl that solves these problems: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/modperl/dev/86456 http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/modperl/dev/86972 It a) extends the interface of Apache2::RequestUtil::add_config: $r->add_config([EMAIL PROTECTED], $override, $path, $override_opts) b) adds a function allow_override_opts() to read ((core_dir_config *)conf)->override_opts c) adds Apache2::CmdParms::override_opts. For Apache 2.0.x these functions return 255, the default value in 2.2. Setting Apache2::CmdParms::override_opts dies for 2.0 and the override_opts parameter to add_config is simply ignored in 2.0. When adding tests I stumbled. Where do I have to add the -defines trick in this case? Btw, does anyone know why $r->add_config always passes a path in cmd_parms? I have tried passing also NULL pointers. For some configuration directives that causes segfaults but sometimes it's useful (for example if a <Location> block is to be passed to $r->add_config). I'd like to extend the interface to pass a NULL pointer in cmd_parms if an empty string is passed to add_config. Would such a patch have any chances to get into mod_perl? Torsten
