APACHE_TEST_LIVE_DEV
Hi again,
More problems with configuring my Apache::Test setup. I have
successfully added the Apache::Test framework into a current project. As
I'm adding new tests, I need to update the code in my modules. To this
end, I followed the advice in the docs to set APACHE_TEST_LIVE_DEV.
Running t/TEST -config correctly created the modperl_inc.pl with the
path to my project/lib directory. However, it also adds paths to the
blib directory above this one which means that I have to run make each
time my modules change in order to get my test server to see the
updates (currently I'm using t/TEST -run-tests to prevent restarting the
server everytime). Deleting the blib paths (there are 2 that get added)
does not make any difference (even if I restart the test server).
Questions:
1) Why is t/TEST -config adding the blib paths?
2) Why aren't my changes to modperl_inc.pl affecting the @INC hash?
I can't seem to find much documentation about the modperl_inc.pl or
modperl_startup.pl files. Any pointers would be most appreciated!
Thanks,
William

It's a great paradigm!

Yep. I should have mentioned that this version looks correct. It's when
the tests get loaded that things go haywire with @INC.

I've grepped for blib and have found that TEST requires the blib package
in the BEGIN block. However, commenting that out makes no difference. I
can't find anywhere in my code that I'm loading these modules. I'll put
together a package soon.

As you can see after modperl_inc.pl the @INC is correct ('lib' is first).

So you must have messed things up and added blib somewhere by yourself. I
think the easiest way to fix it if you can't find it yourself is to upload
your tar.gz with all files somewhere, post the URL here and we will look at it.
p.s. I'm leaving in about 8 hours and will be back next week, but may be Geoff
will be able to look at it.

Re: APACHE_TEST_LIVE_DEV
Posted by William McKee <wi...@knowmad.com>.
Stas,
A bit more testing has revealed more about modperl_inc.pl to me. I had
neglected to realize that modperl_inc.pl only gets loaded on server
startup. I had been running my tests using the following commands:
t/TEST -start
t/TEST -run-tests
When I made the changes to modperl_inc.pl, I had not restarted the
server and therefore did not see the @INC output. Once I restarted the
server, I began to see the output. The weird thing is that the output of
@INC in modperl_inc.pl is very different from the output of @INC in my
test script (see example at end of email).
Also, I found the blib paths in t/conf/apache_test_config.pm and decided
to comment those out to see what would happen. As you can see from the
output of @INC below, those changes did not appear to have any effect.
Is the apache_test_config.pm file documented anywhere? What is this file
doing?
Thanks,
William

Yes, of course, that makes sense. However, when I dump my @INC the blib
directories show up above the project/lib directory:
$VAR1 = [
'/home/quicktel/QT-Web/blib/lib',
'/home/quicktel/QT-Web/blib/arch',
'/home/quicktel/QT-Web/lib',
'lib',
'/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/i686-linux',
'/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2',

'/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2',
'/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl',
'/usr/share/perl5/',
'.'
];

I'm not sure what you want to see. I know that if I run make before
running the test, my changes are seen. Otherwise, they are skipped.

OK.

Yes, see above for dump. I know that I didn't manually add the blib
paths to my modules and grepping the lib directory for blib turns up
nothing. Could the blib paths be getting added by the make operation?

OK, I was dumping it from within my test. Well, adding the following
line:
warn Dumper(\@INC);
Didn't output anything. It seems like A-T is not accessing this file at
all. So, that begs the question of how are the blib paths getting set at
all?

If I can shed some more light on these files, I'd be glad to contribute
a patch. First, I need to figure out how they are working/not working.

By putting it last (after blib):
use lib '/home/stas/work/modules/Apache-Filter-HTTPHeadersFixup/t/response';
use lib '/home/stas/work/modules/Apache-Filter-HTTPHeadersFixup/blib/arch';
use lib '/home/stas/work/modules/Apache-Filter-HTTPHeadersFixup/blib/lib';
use Apache2;
use lib '/home/stas/work/modules/Apache-Filter-HTTPHeadersFixup/lib';
it ensures that it'll be first in @INC. So it does it right.
Show us an example of a module that you put in project/lib/ and it finds the
blib/ one instead. Are you sure you fully qualify the package name in lib/?
> Questions:

it has to, because not all packages contain only .pm files, but .xs too and
they end up in blib/.
> 2) Why aren't my changes to modperl_inc.pl affecting the @INC hash?
they do. Have you dumped your @INC? Are you sure you aren't calling 'use blib'
somewhere in your code?
e.g. change modperl_inc.pl to dump @INC at the end of the file. I'm pretty
sure that lib is the first dir.

Right, there is no documentation. Patches are welcome.
