[phplib-dev] Supporting another webserver.. From: Martijn Prummel (punisher <email protected>)
Date: 12/13/00

Hey all,

I am Martijn, a c++/c/pike/perl/php programmer and I was
busy checking out the Xitami webserver. It has a feature
called LRWP (Long Running Webserver Process) which is a
user defined program. What the program should do is connect
to LRWP port on the Xitami webserver and claim a mountpoint.
The protocol is dead easy. Now, all requests for that mountpoint
will be sent to that LRWP program through the same simple protocol.
The LRWP program can fix a page up and send it back to Xitami webserver.
Yet again through the simple protocol.

What I think what would be really cool is PHP support for LRWP.
It's a bit as follows; I am getting a request which will go through the
PHP parser
and produces output, that can be sent to the browser. I was busy
building
it, but I still have problems with authing through post actions etc.
etc.
I can do simple php pages though. When I check in php scripts for post
vars,
they ARE being caught by the post_read function defined in my
sapi_module struct.
Also, they ARE being posted to the next page etc.
For LRWP reference, please check http://www.imatix.com/

Any thoughts on this? :)

Sincerely,

Martijn
