And it is easy to start learning http.sys via PowerShell - even tracking Apache via PowerShel (threads, sockets, processes and etc.). Then after seeing "non Unix" ways, not non HTTP ways, and how they work, well if one wants to move on to C++ / C okay but .NET makes it so much easier for the starter now! PowerShell is a .NET processe that can use http.sys. So one can start right at the command line and see usage and objects and properties and etc right now (of Apache and or of http.sys). But all this is not Apache On Windows Unix version software - just newer Windows actions doing standard HTTP actions like IIS or any other http.sys user! But the real question for ASF is - why write something that is already there - one can change any part of IIS 7 (and up). So why not just start ASF IIS modules or what ever? Still open source and usable. Then perhaps move on to (if needed) to Apache http.sys MPM! Just a question! Windows Live™ Contacts: Organize your contact list. Check it out. |
