OK, sorry for not having looked at ap_resolve_env() more thoroughly first. What you'd have to use in your module is in fact: const char *var_value = ap_resolve_env(some_pool, "${VAR_NAME}"); > > So it may not be appropriate if "VAR_NAME" was instead a C variable > like var_name (which you'd have to prefix...). This still stands, even worse (prefix + suffix). But maybe simple enough if you'll only use string literals... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
