Detailed Description

This is collection of oddballs that didn't fit anywhere else, and might move to more appropriate headers with the release of APR 1.0.


Define Documentation

#define apr_killpg (   x,
 
)    (killpg ((x), (y)))

apr_killpg Small utility macros to make things easier to read. Not usually a goal, to be sure..

#define HUGE_STRING_LEN   8192

A constant representing a 'large' string.

const char* apr_filepath_name_get ( const char *  pathname)

return the final element of the pathname

Parameters:
pathnameThe path to get the final element of
Returns:
the final element of the path
Remarks:
 For example:
                 "/foo/bar/gum"    -> "gum"
                 "/foo/bar/gum/"   -> ""
                 "gum"             -> "gum"
                 "bs\\path\\stuff" -> "stuff"
 
apr_status_t apr_password_get ( const char *  prompt,
char *  pwbuf,
apr_size_t *  bufsize 
)

Display a prompt and read in the password from stdin.

Parameters:
promptThe prompt to display
pwbufBuffer to store the password
bufsizeThe length of the password buffer.
Remarks:
If the password entered must be truncated to fit in the provided buffer, APR_ENAMETOOLONG will be returned. Note that the bufsize paramater is passed by reference for no reason; its value will never be modified by the apr_password_get() function.
int apr_vformatter ( int(*)(apr_vformatter_buff_t *b)  flush_func,
apr_vformatter_buff_t c,
const char *  fmt,
va_list  ap 
)

apr_vformatter() is a generic printf-style formatting routine with some extensions.

Parameters:
flush_funcThe function to call when the buffer is full
cThe buffer to write to
fmtThe format string
apThe arguments to use to fill out the format string.
Remarks:
 The extensions are:

%pA takes a struct in_addr *, and prints it as a.b.c.d %pI takes an apr_sockaddr_t * and prints it as a.b.c.d:port or [ipv6-address]:port %pT takes an apr_os_thread_t * and prints it in decimal ('0' is printed if !APR_HAS_THREADS) %pt takes an apr_os_thread_t * and prints it in hexadecimal ('0' is printed if !APR_HAS_THREADS) %pm takes an apr_status_t * and prints the appropriate error string (from apr_strerror) corresponding to that error code. %pp takes a void * and outputs it in hex %pB takes a apr_uint32_t * as bytes and outputs it's apr_strfsize %pF same as above, but takes a apr_off_t * %pS same as above, but takes a apr_size_t *

 %pA, %pI, %pT, %pp are available from APR 1.0.0 onwards (and in 0.9.x).
 %pt is only available from APR 1.2.0 onwards.
 %pm, %pB, %pF and %pS are only available from APR 1.3.0 onwards.
 The %p hacks are to force gcc's printf warning code to skip
 over a pointer argument without complaining.  This does
 mean that the ANSI-style %p (output a void * in hex format) won't
 work as expected at all, but that seems to be a fair trade-off
 for the increased robustness of having printf-warnings work.
 Additionally, apr_vformatter allows for arbitrary output methods
 using the apr_vformatter_buff and flush_func.
 The apr_vformatter_buff has two elements curpos and endpos.
 curpos is where apr_vformatter will write the next byte of output.
 It proceeds writing output to curpos, and updating curpos, until
 either the end of output is reached, or curpos == endpos (i.e. the
 buffer is full).
 If the end of output is reached, apr_vformatter returns the
 number of bytes written.
 When the buffer is full, the flush_func is called.  The flush_func
 can return -1 to indicate that no further output should be attempted,
 and apr_vformatter will return immediately with -1.  Otherwise
 the flush_func should flush the buffer in whatever manner is
 appropriate, re apr_pool_t nitialize curpos and endpos, and return 0.
 Note that flush_func is only invoked as a result of attempting to
 write another byte at curpos when curpos >= endpos.  So for
 example, it's possible when the output exactly matches the buffer
 space available that curpos == endpos will be true when
 apr_vformatter returns.
 apr_vformatter does not call out to any other code, it is entirely
 self-contained.  This allows the callers to do things which are
 otherwise "unsafe".  For example, apr_psprintf uses the "scratch"
 space at the unallocated end of a block, and doesn't actually
 complete the allocation until apr_vformatter returns.  apr_psprintf
 would be completely broken if apr_vformatter were to call anything
 that used this same pool.  Similarly http_bprintf() uses the "scratch"
 space at the end of its output buffer, and doesn't actually note
 that the space is in use until it either has to flush the buffer
 or until apr_vformatter returns.
