[modperl2] Perl Connection Handlers for SSL connections

[Pete Rothermel <ro...@isomedia.com>]

I've got the example echo() handler working for a non-HTTP protocol as
outlined  on the new web site:

http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/handlers.html#Command__Protocol__Phases

Anybody have a similar example for the same protocol handler over SSL?

thanks

Stas,

Worked like a charm. You might want to include an example over 
ssl in the doco. I used the openssl executable as the client 
application. 

openssl.exe s_client -connect hostip:sslport

thanks again
Pete

the echo protocol working over the socket skips filters, so it won't 
work with SSL.

at the above URL scroll down to the Apache::Eliza2 example, which uses 
bucket brigades and therefore should work over SSL.

I didn't have a chance to document it yet, but for simple things you 
just change the code inside this snippet:

               if ($data) {
                   $data =~ s/[\r\n]*$//;
                   $last++ if $data =~ /good bye/i;
                   $data = $eliza->transform( $data ) . "\n\n";
                   $bucket = APR::Bucket->new($data);
                }

the rest most likely will stay unmodified.
