[mp2] doing PerlSetVar from a startup handler
Hi -
I'm trying to get mason running under mod_perl 2,
but this is a mod_perl question. I need to have the
following set:
PerlSetVar MasonArgsMethod CGI
When I configure mason in httpd.conf w/o a startup handler,
everything is fine.
With a handler, even with the PerlSetVar before the
'require' for the handler in the conf file, CGI is NOT
set.
Question: how can I PerlSetVar from the perl code in the
handler? I see:
push @{ $Location{"/"}->{PerlSetVar} }, [ foo => 'bar' ];
in the mp1 docs - looks good - but where do I get the %Location
hash? Can't seem to find that.
Aloha => Beau.

Stas -
I finally found what was happening; the startup script
(which I miscalled a 'handler') invoked by a 'PerlRequire'
directive in httpd.conf creates, among other things, a
HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler object. One of the arguments
to it's new constructor is 'args_method', which, when
set to 'CGI' uses CGI instead of Apache::Request. I don't
know how the magic of the PerlSetVar => args_method when
mason is configured w/o a startup script, but the point
is mute, as it is up and running.
I will ponder further after my deadlines are met ;)
Aloha => Beau.
PS: why do I always get two duplicate messages from you?

What do you mean by the "startup handler"? a startup file?

I'm not familiar with mason, so please provide a short example that
reproduces the problem (w/o mason if possible).

In 1.0 outside <Perl> you would go as:
package Apache::ReadConfig;
push @{ $Location{"/"}->{PerlSetVar} }, [ foo => 'bar' ];
but 2.0's support Perl sections support is incomplete as far as I know.
Doug implemented the base and Philippe was working on the rest, but he
is on vacation now, so expect him to complete it once he comes back (in
January I believe)
