| --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| SHORT TERM STUFF (this section should always be empty in a release version!) |
| (well, close to it anyhow) |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| - document Apache::File |
| |
| - think about making 'use Apache::Log ()' automatic |
| |
| - remove DIR_MAGIC_TYPE from mod_perl's handler table, if possible (Salvador) |
| |
| - should Apache::Registry use -M or (stat _)[9]? |
| |
| - restart troubles: Apache::DBI, @INC |
| |
| - ActivePerl? |
| |
| - ldopts() spits out ccdlflags when linker is ld |
| |
| - Paul J. Reder's aix/dso port |
| |
| - Apache::Include->virtual should return run() value, not status() |
| |
| - win32 socket bug (WSAStartup() needed for each thread?) |
| |
| - Makefile.PL should always push load_modules.pl for 'make test' |
| |
| - make PERL_STARTUP_DONE_CHECK=1 default for win32? |
| |
| - turn of strip of httpd in Apache's install.sh |
| |

| KNOWN BUGS |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| - sfio/solaris problem |
| Lupe Christoph <lupe@alanya.m.isar.de>, Don Hayward <don@mote.org> |
| |
| - Gerald's report of Embperl/sub-request/print breakage |
| |
| - looks like we need a per-server configuration merge routine |
| |
| - need turn of strip of httpd during 'make install' |
| |
| - SSIs executed using /bin/sh, not suexec as configured? |
| Theo Van Dinter <felicity@kluge.net> |
| |
| - /perl/perl-status?sig dumps core under hpux 10.20 |
| [David-Michael.Lincke@unisg.ch] |
| |
| - USE_DSO=1 --> END blocks are run at startup time |
| |
| - USE_DSO=1 broken on most platforms (core dump in dlclose) |
| |
| - $r cannot use many api methods during ChildInit/ChildExit -> SEGV |
| |
| - bytes_sent are not logged if header don't go through send_http_header(), |
| e.g CGI->header(-nph => 1, ...) |
| Eric Cholet <cholet@logilune.com> |
| |
| - SIGALRM/flock, Lincoln Stein <lstein@cshl.org> |
| I often use this type of code to handle possibly blocked flocks(): |
| |
| local($timed_out) = 0; |
| local($SIG{ALRM}) = sub { $timed_out++; die "timed out"; } |
| alarm(5); |
| eval { |
| flock(FH,LOCK_EX); |
| } |
| alarm(0); |
| if ($timed_out) { |
| print "We timed out. Sorry."; |
| } |
| |
| This has been working in standalone CGI scripts, but no longer works |
| in mod_perl. The signal handler gets called, but then the flock() |
| call seems to be restarted. It never exit the eval. So this is no big |
| deal, I just replace the blocking flock() with a poll. |
| |
| - find a way to prevent "httpd spinning" (bug in Perl, not mod_perl) |
| |
| - linkage problem w/ mod_auth_dbm (-ldbm) |
| Config.pm New: libs='-lsocket -lnsl -ldl -lm -lc -lcrypt -ldb' |
| Was: libs='-lsocket -lnsl -ldb -ldl -lm -lc -lcrypt' |
| SunOS mailhost.cmc.net 5.5 Generic_103093-17 sun4m sparc sun4m |
| brian moore <bem@cmc.net> |
| |
| - perl_config should not av_shift ARRAY refs from |
| %Apache::ReadConfig:: |
| |
| - die and AUTOLOADed DESTROY == empty $@ (Perl or mod_perl bug?) |
| |
| - ExtUtils::Embed/ExtUtils::Liblist clash sometime w/ |
| PERL_STATIC_EXTS, like so: |
| Unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: |
| '/opt/oracle/product/7.3.3/lib/libclient.a' |
| |
| Note (probably harmless): No library found for -l:libcma.sl |

| - From: brian moore <bem@CMC.NET> |
| As Apacheweek reported a couple weeks ago, 'some' modules on Solaris have |
| problems with the mutex locking method used by 1.3b5. One of which is |
| mod_perl. To make it work I had to -DUSE_FCNTL_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT or |
| the server would never answer a request. |
| |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| KNOWN MODULE BUGS |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| - can't multiple Apache::Include->virtual in a single request |
| |
| - files that have been created after the server's (child?) startup are |
| being reported with negative age with -M test under Apache::Registry. |
| The workaround is to add $^T = time; at the beginning of the scripts. But |
| it would be much better if the Apache::Registry will do that |
