NAME
       Apache2::SubRequest - Perl API for Apache subrequests

Synopsis
         use Apache2::SubRequest ();

         # run internal redirects at once
         $r->internal_redirect($new_uri);
         $r->internal_redirect_handler($new_uri);

         # create internal redirect objects
         $subr = $r->lookup_uri("/foo");
         $subr = $r->lookup_method_uri("GET", "/tmp/bar")
         $subr = $r->lookup_file("/tmp/bar");
         # optionally manipulate the output through main request filters
         $subr = $r->lookup_uri("/foo", $r->output_filters);
         # now run them
         my $rc = $subr->run;

Description
       "Apache2::SubRequest" contains API for creating and running of Apache sub-requests.

       "Apache2::SubRequest" is a sub-class of "Apache2::RequestRec object".

API
       "Apache2::SubRequest" provides the following functions and/or methods:

   "DESTROY"
       Free the memory associated with a sub request:

         undef $subr; # but normally don't do that

       obj: $subr ( "Apache2::SubRequest object" )
           The sub request to finish

       ret: no return value
       since: 2.0.00

       "DESTROY" is called automatically when $subr goes out of scope.

       If you want to free the memory earlier than that (for example if you run several
       subrequests), you can "undef" the object as:

         undef $subr;

       but never call "DESTROY" explicitly, since it'll result in "ap_destroy_sub_req" being
       called more than once, resulting in multiple brain injuries and certain hair loss.

   "internal_redirect"
       Redirect the current request to some other uri internally

         $r->internal_redirect($new_uri);

       obj: $r ( "Apache2::RequestRec object" )
           The current request

       arg1: $new_uri ( string )
           The URI to replace the current request with

       ret: no return value
       since: 2.0.00

       In case that you want some other request to be served as the top-level request instead of
       what the client requested directly, call this method from a handler, and then immediately
       return "Apache2::Const::OK". The client will be unaware the a different request was served
       to her behind the scenes.

   "internal_redirect_handler"
       Identical to "internal_redirect", plus automatically sets "$r->content_type" is of the
       sub-request to be the same as of the main request, if "$r->handler" is true.

         $r->internal_redirect_handler($new_uri);

       obj: $r ( "Apache2::RequestRec object" )
           The current request

       arg1: $new_uri ( string )
           The URI to replace the current request with.

       ret: no return value
       since: 2.0.00

       This function is designed for things like actions or CGI scripts, when using "AddHandler",
       and you want to preserve the content type across an internal redirect.

   "lookup_file"
       Create a subrequest for the given file.  This sub request can be inspected to find
       information about the requested file

         $ret = $r->lookup_file($new_file);
         $ret = $r->lookup_file($new_file, $next_filter);

       obj: $r ( "Apache2::RequestRec object" )
           The current request

       arg1: $new_file ( string )
           The file to lookup

       opt arg2: $next_filter ( "Apache2::Filter" )
           See "$r->lookup_uri" for details.

       ret: $ret ( "Apache2::SubRequest object" )
           The sub request record.

       since: 2.0.00

       See "$r->lookup_uri" for further discussion.

   "lookup_method_uri"
       Create a sub request for the given URI using a specific method.  This sub request can be
       inspected to find information about the requested URI

         $ret = $r->lookup_method_uri($method, $new_uri);
         $ret = $r->lookup_method_uri($method, $new_uri, $next_filter);

       obj: $r ( "Apache2::RequestRec object" )
           The current request

       arg1: $method ( string )
           The method to use in the new sub request (e.g. "GET")

       arg2: $new_uri ( string )
           The URI to lookup

       opt arg3: $next_filter ( "Apache2::Filter object" )
           See "$r->lookup_uri" for details.

       ret: $ret ( "Apache2::SubRequest object" )
           The sub request record.

       since: 2.0.00

       See "$r->lookup_uri" for further discussion.

   "lookup_uri"
       Create a sub request from the given URI.  This sub request can be inspected to find
       information about the requested URI.

         $ret = $r->lookup_uri($new_uri);
         $ret = $r->lookup_uri($new_uri, $next_filter);

       obj: $r ( "Apache2::RequestRec object" )
           The current request

       arg1: $new_uri ( string )
           The URI to lookup

       opt arg2: $next_filter ( "Apache2::Filter object" )
           The first filter the subrequest should pass the data through.  If not specified it
           defaults to the first connection output filter for the main request
           "$r->proto_output_filters". So if the subrequest sends any output it will be filtered
           only once. If for example you desire to apply the main request's output filters to the
           sub-request output as well pass "$r->output_filters" as an argument.

       ret: $ret ( "Apache2::SubRequest object" )
           The sub request record

       since: 2.0.00

       Here is an example of a simple subrequest which serves uri /new_uri:

         sub handler {
             my $r = shift;

             my $subr = $r->lookup_uri("/new_uri");
             $subr->run;

             return Apache2::Const::OK;
         }

       If let's say you have three request output filters registered to run for the main request:

         PerlOutputFilterHandler MyApache2::SubReqExample::filterA
         PerlOutputFilterHandler MyApache2::SubReqExample::filterB
         PerlOutputFilterHandler MyApache2::SubReqExample::filterC

       and you wish to run them all, the code needs to become:

             my $subr = $r->lookup_uri("/new_uri", $r->output_filters);

       and if you wish to run them all, but the first one ("filterA"), the code needs to be
       adjusted to be:

             my $subr = $r->lookup_uri("/new_uri", $r->output_filters->next);

   "run"
       Run a sub-request

         $rc = $subr->run();

       obj: $subr ( "Apache2::RequestRec object" )
           The sub-request (e.g. returned by "lookup_uri")

       ret: $rc ( integer )
           The return code of the handler ("Apache2::Const::OK", "Apache2::Const::DECLINED",
           etc.)

       since: 2.0.00

Unsupported API
       "Apache2::SubRequest" also provides auto-generated Perl interface for a few other methods
       which aren't tested at the moment and therefore their API is a subject to change. These
       methods will be finalized later as a need arises. If you want to rely on any of the
       following methods please contact the the mod_perl development mailing list so we can help
       each other take the steps necessary to shift the method to an officially supported API.

   "internal_fast_redirect"
       META: Autogenerated - needs to be reviewed/completed

       Redirect the current request to a sub_req, merging the pools

         $r->internal_fast_redirect($sub_req);

       obj: $r ( "Apache2::RequestRec object" )
           The current request

       arg1: $sub_req ( string )
           A subrequest created from this request

       ret: no return value
       since: 2.0.00

       META: httpd-2.0/modules/http/http_request.c declares this function as:

         /* XXX: Is this function is so bogus and fragile that we deep-6 it? */

       do we really want to expose it to mod_perl users?

   "lookup_dirent"
       META: Autogenerated - needs to be reviewed/completed

       Create a sub request for the given apr_dir_read result.  This sub request can be inspected
       to find information about the requested file

         $lr = $r->lookup_dirent($finfo);
         $lr = $r->lookup_dirent($finfo, $subtype);
         $lr = $r->lookup_dirent($finfo, $subtype, $next_filter);

       obj: $r ( "Apache2::RequestRec object" )
           The current request

       arg1: $finfo ( "APR::Finfo object" )
           The apr_dir_read result to lookup

       arg2: $subtype ( integer )
           What type of subrequest to perform, one of;

             Apache2::SUBREQ_NO_ARGS     ignore r->args and r->path_info
             Apache2::SUBREQ_MERGE_ARGS  merge  r->args and r->path_info

       arg3: $next_filter ( integer )
           The first filter the sub_request should use.  If this is NULL, it defaults to the
           first filter for the main request

       ret: $lr ( "Apache2::RequestRec object" )
           The new request record

       since: 2.0.00

       META: where do we take the apr_dir_read result from?
