<h3>Summary</h3>
|
||
|
||
|
||
<p>On selected operating systems this module can be used to
|
||
load modules into Apache HTTP Server at runtime via the <a href="../dso.html">Dynamic Shared Object</a> (DSO) mechanism,
|
||
rather than requiring a recompilation.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>On Unix, the loaded code typically comes from shared object
|
||
files (usually with <code>.so</code> extension), on Windows
|
||
this may either the <code>.so</code> or <code>.dll</code>
|
||
extension.</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
|
||
<p>Modules built for one major version of the Apache HTTP Server
|
||
will generally not work on another. (e.g. 1.3 vs. 2.0, or 2.0 vs.
|
||
2.2) There are usually API changes between one major version and
|
||
another that require that modules be modified to work with the new
|
||
version.</p>

|
||
<div class="note"><h3>Note</h3>
|
||
<p>On Windows, where loadable files typically have a file extension
|
||
of <code>.dll</code>, Apache httpd modules are called
|
||
<code>mod_whatever.so</code>, just as they are on other platforms.
|
||
However, you may encounter third-party modules, such as PHP for
|
||
example, that continue to use the <code>.dll</code> convention.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>While <code>mod_so</code> still loads modules with
|
||
<code>ApacheModuleFoo.dll</code> names, the new naming convention is
|
||
preferred; if you are converting your loadable module for 2.0,
|
||
please fix the name to this 2.0 convention.</p></div>
|
||
|
||
<p>The Apache httpd module API is unchanged between the Unix and
|
||
Windows versions. Many modules will run on Windows with no or
|
||
little change from Unix, although others rely on aspects of the
|
||
Unix architecture which are not present in Windows, and will
|
||
not work.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>When a module does work, it can be added to the server in
|
||
one of two ways. As with Unix, it can be compiled into the
|
||
server. Because Apache httpd for Windows does not have the
|
||
<code>Configure</code> program of Apache httpd for Unix, the module's
|
||
source file must be added to the ApacheCore project file, and
|
||
its symbols must be added to the
|
||
<code>os\win32\modules.c</code> file.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>The second way is to compile the module as a DLL, a shared
|
||
library that can be loaded into the server at runtime, using
|
||
the <code><code class="directive">LoadModule</code></code>
|
||
directive. These module DLLs can be distributed and run on any
|
||
Apache httpd for Windows installation, without recompilation of the
|
||
server.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>To create a module DLL, a small change is necessary to the
|
||
module's source file: The module record must be exported from
|
||
the DLL (which will be created later; see below). To do this,
|
||
add the <code>AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA</code> (defined in the
|
||
Apache httpd header files) to your module's module record definition.
|
||
For example, if your module has:</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example"><p><code>
|
||
module foo_module;
|
||
</code></p></div>
|
||
|
||
<p>Replace the above with:</p>
|
||
<div class="example"><p><code>
|
||
module AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA foo_module;
|
||
</code></p></div>
|
||
|
||
<p>Note that this will only be activated on Windows, so the
|
||
module can continue to be used, unchanged, with Unix if needed.
|
||
Also, if you are familiar with <code>.DEF</code> files, you can
|
||
export the module record with that method instead.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Now, create a DLL containing your module. You will need to
|
||
link this against the libhttpd.lib export library that is
|
||
created when the libhttpd.dll shared library is compiled. You
|
||
may also have to change the compiler settings to ensure that
|
||
the Apache httpd header files are correctly located. You can find
|
||
this library in your server root's modules directory. It is
|
||
best to grab an existing module .dsp file from the tree to
|
||
assure the build environment is configured correctly, or
|
||
alternately compare the compiler and link options to your
|
||
.dsp.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>This should create a DLL version of your module. Now simply
|
||
place it in the <code>modules</code> directory of your server
|
||
root, and use the <code class="directive">LoadModule</code>
|
||
directive to load it.</p>

||

|

<p>The LoadFile directive links in the named object files or

libraries when the server is started or restarted; this is used
|

to load additional code which may be required for some module
|
||
to work. <em>Filename</em> is either an absolute path or
|
||
relative to <a href="core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a>.</p>
|
||
|

<p>For example:</p>
|

|

|
||
<p>The LoadModule directive links in the object file or library
|
||
<em>filename</em> and adds the module structure named
|
||
<em>module</em> to the list of active modules. <em>Module</em>
|
||
is the name of the external variable of type
|
||
<code>module</code> in the file, and is listed as the <a href="module-dict.html#ModuleIdentifier">Module Identifier</a>
|
||
in the module documentation. Example:</p>
|

|

<div class="example"><p><code>
|

LoadModule status_module modules/mod_status.so
|
||

|
