With the introduction of platform-specific <a - href="mpm.html">multi-processing modules</a> (MPMs) and the Apache - Portable Runtime (APR), these platforms are now implemented in their - native API, avoiding the often buggy and poorly performing - POSIX-emulation layers. - -<DT><STRONG>New Apache API</STRONG> -<DD>The API for modules has changed significantly for 2.0. Many of the - module-ordering problems from 1.3 should be gone. 2.0 does much of - this automatically, and module ordering is now done per-hook to - allow more flexibility. Also, new calls have been added that provide - additional module capabilities without patching the core Apache server. - -<DT><STRONG>IPv6 Support</STRONG></DT> -<DD>On systems where IPv6 is supported by the underlying Apache - Portable Runtime library, Apache gets IPv6 listening sockets by - default. Additionally, the Listen, NameVirtualHost, and - <VirtualHost> directives support IPv6 numeric address - strings (e.g., "Listen [fe80::1]:8080").</DD> - -<DT><STRONG>Filtering</STRONG></DT> -<DD>Apache modules may now be written as filters which act on the - stream of content as it is delivered to or from the server.

In order to -assure that Apache reads the configuration files in the same order as -was implied by the older directives, the <code>Include</code> -directives should be placed at the end of httpd.conf, with the one for -<code>srm.conf</code> preceding the one for -<code>access.conf</code>.</li> - -<li>The <code>BindAddress</code> directive no longer exists. -Equivalent functionality is provided with the more flexible <code><a -href="mod/mpm_common.html#listen">Listen</a></code> directive. - -<li>The <code>ServerType</code> directive no longer exists. -The method used to serve requests is now determined by the selection -of MPM. There is currently no MPM designed to be launched by -inetd.</li> - -<li>The mod_log_agent and mod_log_referer modules which provided the -<code>AgentLog</code>, <code>RefererLog</code> and -<code>RefererIgnore</code> directives have been removed.
