Here's the code I'm using. I'm guessing that get_config() may not
return what I'm looking for during startup since it functions properly
at runtime. Any ideas? $pkg_global will be a template object, which
is why I want to construct it during startup. I can make a new object
with each handler call but I was hoping to avoid that.
Aha - simple solution is use the first instance of get_config() in the
handler and cache it.
or create the various CREATE() and MERGE() subroutines, and use those to
govern singleton creation.
I'm not using any vhosts so from my understanding I don't need MERGE().
So I have been able to successfully implement the SERVER_CREATE sub to
create a singleton, but I still need to access a command directive for
the singleton creation. I tried this approach which didn't succeed.
I'm basically trying to get the value of a command directive in the
global server part of httpd.conf during startup so can do fun stuff with
it in startup.pl rather than at runtime.
httpd.conf
MyappRoot = '/path/to/myapproot';
package My::Config;
...
Apache2::Module::add(__PACKAGE__, ( { name => 'myapproot', ... });
sub SERVER_CREATE {
my ($class, $parm) = @_;
my $cfg = Apache2::Module::get_config(__PACKAGE__,
Apache2::ServerUtil->server); # $cfg is undefined <<-----
return bless { myapproot => $cfg->{_myapproot}};
}
sub MyappRoot {
my ($cfg, $parms, $arg) = @_;
$cfg->{_myapproot} = $arg;
}
