<div class="warning">
This document has not been updated
to take into account changes made in the 2.0 version of the
Apache HTTP Server. Some of the information may still be
relevant, but please use it with care.
</div>
<p>The files in the <code>src/modules/example directory</code>
under the Apache distribution directory tree are provided as an
example to those that wish to write modules that use the Apache
API.</p>
<p>The main file is <code>mod_example.c</code>, which
illustrates all the different callback mechanisms and call
syntaxes. By no means does an add-on module need to include
routines for all of the callbacks - quite the contrary!</p>
<p>The example module is an actual working module. If you link
it into your server, enable the "example-handler" handler for a
location, and then browse to that location, you will see a
display of some of the tracing the example module did as the
various callbacks were made.</p>

<p>To include the example module in your server, follow the
steps below:</p>
<ol>
<li>
Uncomment the "AddModule modules/example/mod_example" line
near the bottom of the <code>src/Configuration</code> file.
If there isn't one, add it; it should look like this:
<div class="example"><p><code>
AddModule modules/example/mod_example.o
</code></p></div>
</li>
<li>Run the <code>src/Configure</code> script
("<code>cd�src;�./Configure</code>"). This will
build the Makefile for the server itself, and update the
<code>src/modules/Makefile</code> for any additional modules
you have requested from beneath that subdirectory.</li>
<li>Make the server (run "<code>make</code>" in the
<code>src</code> directory).</li>
</ol>
<p>To add another module of your own:</p>
<ol class="up-A">
<li><code>mkdir src/modules/<em>mymodule</em></code></li>
<li><code>cp src/modules/example/*
src/modules/<em>mymodule</em></code></li>
<li>Modify the files in the new directory.</li>
<li>Follow steps [1] through [3] above, with appropriate
changes.</li>
</ol>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div><div class="section"><h2>Using the <code>mod_example</code> Module</h2>
<p>To activate the example module, include a block similar to
the following in your <code>srm.conf</code> file:</p>
<div class="example"><p><code>
<Location /example-info><br />
SetHandler example-handler<br />
</Location>
</code></p></div>
<p>As an alternative, you can put the following into a <a href="core.html#accessfilename"><code>.htaccess</code></a> file
and then request the file "test.example" from that location:</p>
<div class="example"><p><code>
AddHandler example-handler .example
</code></p></div>
<p>After reloading/restarting your server, you should be able
to browse to this location and see the brief display mentioned
earlier.</p>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div><div class="directive-section"><h2><a name="Example" id="Example">Example</a> <a name="example" id="example">Directive</a></h2><table class="directive"><tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Description">Description:
</a></th><td>Demonstration directive to illustrate the Apache module
API</td></tr><tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Syntax">Syntax:
</a></th><td><code>Example</code></td></tr><tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Context">Context:

</a></th><td>Experimental</td></tr><tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Module">Module:
</a></th><td>mod_example</td></tr></table>
<p>The <code class="directive">Example</code> directive just sets a demonstration
flag which the example module's content handler displays. It
takes no arguments. If you browse to an URL to which the
example content-handler applies, you will get a display of the
routines within the module and how and in what order they were
called to service the document request. The effect of this
directive one can observe under the point "<code>Example
directive declared here: YES/NO</code>".</p>
