Hi all...

I need to listen to http and https requests. So, i thougth using the
apache source code, but i can't identify where is the main (listen)
routine...
Where is the function who waits for a connection???

Any hint?

Thank you all!

Yeah.  Don't twiddle with apache.  Get a packet-monitoring tool like
tcpdump or ethereal, and monitor it that way.

if you would like to see http request in real time (as it happens)
then use xrootconsole and have it print the accesslog to the console.
if you need to see the packet information then use ethereal...

Take a look at:

That will tell you more than you ever wanted to know.  The main loop is in h
ttp_main.c.  Whatever it is that you are trying to do, using the Apache sour
ce code is probably the wrong way to do it, except in the very unique case o
f if you are trying to serve web pages.  Trust me on this.  You are better o
ff learning Java and doing it from scratch than trying to twidle around with
 Apache.
