[users@httpd] Compiling a new module in Apache 2.0.55

[Lekha Menon <le...@patni.com>]

Hi,

I had created an apache module & have built on Windows.

Now, i need to port the same on to Linux.

On windows, building the source code was simple  - by making changes in the
Makefile.win files.

What are the basic steps to compile a new module on Linux?
I have seen 2 files related to making the source code in the existing module
folder - config.m4, Makefile.in

Can anyone please let me know what these files should contain & how to
proceed with it?

Thanks & Regards,
Lekha

Kevin O'Donnell has a tutorial linked from here:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/developer/

Note also that there is a mailing list devoted to module developers at
