In one of my modules, I needed to run several subrequests serially and
send their output back to the original client. After looking at
mod_ssi_filter and mod_echo, I was able to write a module that worked.
However, because the subrequest code is complicated, I'd like a
second opinion. Can someone who's familiar with the subrequest
mechanism please take a look at the code example below (which is a
simplified version of my actual code, to make it easier to read) and
let me know if I'm using subrequests in the proper manner?
One specific question I have is: What does the
NGX_HTTP_SUBREQUEST_IN_MEMORY flag do?
I'm using nginx-0.7, if that makes a difference.
Thanks,
