Graham Dumpleton commented on MODPYTHON-218:
--------------------------------------------
Attach your patch to this issue. Also get yourself subscribed to the developer mailing list described in:
http://wiki.apache.org/mod_python/Mailing_lists
and bring the issue up there if you want to get feedback.
Personally I believe it is just becoming too unwieldy to keep adding extra functions on an ad-hoc basis. I believe effort should be directed to a SWIG binding for Apache. Unfortunately such a beast can't really be harnessed by mod_python itself because it
would be too much trouble to make it backwards compatible and would just make the mod_python code base even harder to maintain. As a separate package though it is realistic and I do actually have most of such a SWIG binding done.

> I have available a patch file which enhances mod_python-3.3.1 source version as described below. How do I submit this for consideration?
> 1. Added support for the following methods in requestobject.c:
> Referring to http://docx.itscales.com/http__request_8h.html:
> lookup_file - provides access to ap_sub_req_lookup_file
> lookup_method_uri - provides access to ap_sub_req_method_uri
> lookup_uri - provides access to ap_sub_req_method_uri
> Referring to http://docx.itscales.com/ group___a...t_
o.html
> note_basic_auth_failure - provides access to ap_note_basic_auth_failure
> 2. Added checks on values passed to function setreq_recmbr in requestobject.c for assignment to the following request variable:
> method - this function coerces both the method and method_number to the appropriate values for the string value passed in as a parameter
> 3. Added the function conn_close in connobject.c so that I can force the connection to not be kept alive for another request; sets the value of the conn_rec's keepalive field to AP_CONN_CLOSE.
