Hello, I have a pressing issue with modules and shutdown that I need some expert enlightenment on. Perhaps someone can chip in a suggestion on how I can solve this problem. First up - I'm using a process-pool clean-up handler to shutdown some iiop connections being used by my module. This all works swimmingly well on all platforms except HP. I have read, elsewhere (http://archive.netbsd.se/?ml=apache-httpd-dev&a=2004-03&t=87076) that dynamic modules get unloaded prior to the process pool cleanup routines being called. If this is the case, then I have a serious problem, as unloading the dynamic module will undermine my ability to run my shutdown code. What I need is a 'real' shutdown hook that can be called prior to the module being unloaded - that way I can guarantee that all my code that needs to be there, will still be there. Now, to my mind, this 'unloading the module prior to calling the process-pool handlers' does not seem to make sense, but the symptoms I'm seeing on my HP port of my module exactly match this scenario: A C++ destructor is references (it's an empty implementation) and the reference coredumps. The reference does nothing and should not be null, but it is - this is what I'd expect if someone unloaded the dependent shared library prior to me calling the destructor. If this is truly the case - where can I put my cleanup routines such that they will work? -Thom --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
