Yes, easily.
In any of your handler, you make a reference to one test module.
For example, in your response handler:
use myModule();
use Apache2::Const -compile => qw(OK);
sub handler {
myModule::printHello();
return Apache2::Const::OK;
}
1;
And then: myModule.pm:
sub printHello {
print
Hi,
You can put that in your Apache conf file:
PerlModule Apache2::Reload
PerlInitHandler Apache2::Reload
This way, every time you alter one of your Apache modules, it gets reloaded.
This incurs a small performance hit (the server has to fstat the related
files every time a request is run, to
All you need to do (assuming mod_perl2) is:
- set the content-type (to whatever file type you are sending)
- use $r->sendfile('filename')

If this works with Apache 2.0, but not with Apache 2.2, then, it would
perhaps be useful to point this out.

If you have a lot of scripts that, for

Hi,
I am running an Apache 2.059 server, on a Win32 platform (Perl 5.8 & mod_perl
2.03).
During the lifetime of the server, I cn see that the memory footprint of the

I can't say this is really a problem, but I woul
Yes absolutely. What you are trying to do is re-invent some of the
existing
functionality of both Apache::DBI and DBI. DBI can cache prepared
statements so
you don't have to prepare them everytime and Apache::DBI can pool those
statements' connections so you don't have to re-create them everytime.
OK Fine.
But will this be compatible with Apache::DBI?
Moreover, I would be happy to have a reply to my original question, at least
for the sake of knowledge.
Thanks.

You should use libapreq2, which is a library that globally allows to deal
