Hi
I am java/flex programmer since 1yrs and a little bit of perl. I have
a requirement of write a
handler at apache http server side using perl.
Scenario:
1. My flex application request for a particular file to the apache
server.
2. The server upon receiving a request look for the mime type of the
file. If that file mime type is video/flv or .flv I should write a handler
for that.
3. The handler should be in a position to call a java class. where I will
decrypt the fille and send it back to the flex application.
Here my request is how can I write my own handler? where can I write it? and
as I am not a perl programmer, I am not getting the solution for that. So
could any one help me with an example.
I'd start here:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/intro.html
to get the headers (including the content-type) from the incoming request:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache2/RequestRec.html#C_headers_in_
to run Java code you can look at:
http://search.cpan.org/~patl/Inline-Java-0.52/Java.pod
Hopefully that should point you in the right direction.
