patch: app-server.pod (add Interchange)

Post #1 of 4 (3455 views)

Here's a patch for app-server.pod that adds a mention for Interchange,
which runs under mod_perl in at least one of its modes.

This is my first patch, so lemme know if you need any changes.

Thanks Bill for the patch. Where exactly mod_perl kicks in here? I've
searched the site and there is not a single mentioning of mod_perl. And
the very first hit of maillist search gave me this:
http://www.icdevgroup.org/pipermail/interchange-users/2001-January/003879.html

Actually neither of these will increase Interchange's performance. mod_perl...
------------

I can't see how this kind of project can fit into app-server.pod doc.
Please explain.

Thanks.

Hmm, that's a bit of an old link. This one is probably most instructive:
http://www.icdevgroup.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/interchange/dist/src/mod_perl2/README?rev=1.2&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup

I originally wrote up the patch based on a friend telling me he was
running it under mod_perl (I'm not actually a user myself). This page
seems to indicate that only a part of the server is running under
mod_perl2, a conduit to marshal requests to an Interchange process
listening on a socket (which is apparently how many people run it).

So I'm not sure if that qualifies for inclusion in the page. The whole
thing isn't based on mod_perl, like e.g. Mason. Your call.

We just want to keep that page limited to stuff that runs under mod_perl,
as you've now shown that it does, it was committed (will show up within 6
hours). Thanks Bill.
