Apache::Module

Apache::Module provides interfaces to the Apache C data structures and API that are related to a module structure, the module, handler_rec, and command_rec structures. The package includes two modules which use these interfaces. Apache::ModuleDoc generates on-the-fly documentation of C modules, including Perl directive syntax. Apache::ShowRequest takes a URI and walks you through each of the request phases, showing which modules participate in each and what return code they produce for the given URI.
