| /** @page apreq_status STATUS |
| |
| 2.06-dev released on July 20, 2005 |
| |
| Contributors looking for a mission: |
| |
| - just do an egrep on "TODO" or "XXX" and see what's there |
| |
| |
| CURRENT RELEASE NOTES: |
| |
| |
| RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS: |
| |
| - The api docs are currently incorrect. |
| - The perl docs are missing Test::Inline tests. |
| |
| |
| CURRENT VOTES: |
| |
| - Should we switch to EU::MM for determining the full path to perl? |
| The problem is that some folks move their perl binary post-installation, |
| but never adjust Config.pm. EU::MM is smart, by accepting a |
| full path in $^X or by searching the user's $PATH for $^X, before |
| resorting to Config.pm. However, if we change apreq2, we should also |
| lobby test-dev to adopt the same solution for Apache::Test. Otherwise |
| our test suite will likely fail, even though the rest of the perl build |
| system will presumably still work. |

| TODO: |
| |
| - Sadly, the PAUSE indexer still doesn't speak META.yml. We need |
| to find a way to get the APR::Request* packages indexed (with |
| proper version numbers), and prevent the indexer from inspecting |
| the supporting modules in */t, and glue/perl/xsbuilder/tables. |
| |
| - Dump automake, preferably replacing that with more stuff from |
| httpd/apr's build system. |
| |
| - Move module/t to module/apache2/t. |
| |
| - Figure out how and where the apreq_xs_ headers, and typemap file, |
| should be installed. |
| |
| - Write tests for the apache 1.3.x module. |
| |
| - Fix the broken make dependencies, especially in the module |
| and glue subdirs. The libtool workaround (for OSX IIRC) |
| that copies module/.libs to module/t is especially bogus. |
| |
| - Drop ExtUtils::XSBuilder as the C API is fairly |
| stable now. The header parsing + xs generation stuff may be too |
| difficult for the community to maintain over ordinary .xs files. |
| |
| - Round out the unit tests in library/t. Ideally each |
| API function should have its own tests, and each possible |
| error status should be both tested & documented. Also |
| upgrade these tests to use the Apache::Test framework. |
| |
| - Add a "memory_limit" setting to apreq_parser_t and apreq_module_t, |
| which will control how much pool allocation the parser may use. |
| |
| - Add a "header_limit" setting to control outgoing header size |
| (mainly for baking cookies) instead of using a compiled-in limit. |
| |
| - in glue/perl/t/apreq/cgi.t on Win32, printing to the error log |
| hangs if the strings involved are about 10000 in size. |
| This doesn't occur in the env/cgi tests - why? |
| |
| - Why must fprintf(stderr, ...), rather than |
| apr_file_printf(err, ...), be used on Win32 in |
| cgi_log() of src/apreq_env.c? |
| |
| - Get env/ (Apache::Test) tests to work for --with-apache2-src option. |
| Also add a test to configure that prevents simultaneous use of |
| --with-apache2-src and --with-apache2-apxs. |
| |
| - symbol exports files: |
| -# aix needs .exp files |
| |
| - Install the html dox during "make install". Should we do this |
| for the doxy manpages also? |
| |
| - Rework glue/perl build system to use apreq2-config instead of |
| relying on paths like "../../src". |
| |
| |
| OPEN ISSUES: |
| |
| - Should we bundle an apr-based "application/xml" parser? |
| If so, how should we parse the xml data into an apr_table? |
| |
| - Determine whether or not it's good for the perl glue to ever set |
| the SvUTF8 flag on a param. The current code ties this action to the |
| apreq_param_is_tainted flag. |
| |
| - Should we let hooks interrupt parsers via APREQ_ERROR_INTERRUPT? |
| That'd need a delete_hook method to make interrupts a useful |
| way of tuning parser behavior. |
| |
| |
| BUGS: |
| |
| - Fix build automake/libtool/autoconf build system so it works |
| properly on OSX & AIX. |
| |
| |
| WISH LIST: |
| |
| - I [joes] wish folks would contribute some glue code for |
| one of these: |
| |
| - php, |
| - Rivet, |
| - mod_dtcl, |
| - mod_python, |
| - mod_jk, |
| - tomcat, |
| - mod_ruby, |
| - mod_parrot. |
