The Apache/Perl integration project brings together the full power of
the Perl programming language and the Apache HTTP server.  With mod_perl
it is possible to write Apache modules entirely in Perl.  In addition,
the persistent interpreter embedded in the server avoids the overhead of
starting an external interpreter and the penalty of Perl start-up time.

Initial import of mod_perl 1.21. This is mod_perl for Apache. It is intended as a replacement for the p5-Apache port. Instead of creating a replacement httpd binary with mod_perl linked into it, it uses Apache's APXS to create and install mod_perl as a DSO. This makes it suitable for use with apachexx-xxx ports other than apache13. 1999-11-05 14:50:26 +00:00			`The Apache/Perl integration project brings together the full power of`
