################################################## # Things to be resolved for mod_perl 2.0 release # ################################################## -- see also todo/api_status -- see also todo/release-checklist someone has asked to make $r->request_time settable ------------- The following items need more work in order to work with blead-perl: http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs?rev=209859&view=rev perl blead fix: in 5.9.3 HvPMROOT was completely removed, temporary using Perl_Imodglobal_ptr(thx)))->xmg_magic (which fails on perl_clone from ithreads, but otherwise works). this must be replaced with a better solution once we find it. http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs?rev=209861&view=rev blead perl temp fix: some recent change introduced tainting problems, will remove the workaround once blead perl is fixed ------------- MP_STATIC_EXTS=1 must link all extensions but APR.so. At the moment the following are not linked: APR/Const.so APR/PerlIO.so Apache/Const.so ModPerl/Const.so owner: ??? note: when testing MP_STATIC_EXTS=1 build we must ensure that there is no preinstalled mod_perl2. Since if there is a preinstall of a normal build, MP_STATIC_EXTS=1 will be not properly tested, as the preinstalled .so modules will be loaded. A potential solution: when MP_STATIC_EXTS=1 is used change .pm files not to load the .xs extensions! ------------- When running as root and A-T figures it can't run the test suite (perms) it'll ask users if she wants to skip the test suite, if this happens: Skip the test suite? [No] yes Skipping the test suite execution, while returning success status cd ModPerl-Registry && make test she gets to run the registry test suite anyway, since the top level test suite was successful (needed to make cpan/plus installers happy). Not sure what's the best solution here. ---------------
