URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-218
Project: mod_python
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core
Environment: all
Reporter: Richard Barrett
Fix For: 3.3


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...
o.ht
ml

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 appr
opriate 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 con
nection to not be kept alive for another request; sets the value of the conn
_rec's keepalive field to AP_CONN_CLOSE.
