e27eee5caa6c1bf3853c11253ae82303cff0e40brbowen <p>The request_rec is mapped in as a userdata. It has a metatable
e27eee5caa6c1bf3853c11253ae82303cff0e40brbowen which lets you do useful things with it. For the most part it
e27eee5caa6c1bf3853c11253ae82303cff0e40brbowen has the same fields as the request_rec struct (see httpd.h
e27eee5caa6c1bf3853c11253ae82303cff0e40brbowen until we get better docs here) many of which are writeable as
92e5d4326ae44f79da5cb049470daba604506846poirier well as readable. (The table fields' content can be changed, but the
92e5d4326ae44f79da5cb049470daba604506846poirier fields themselves cannot be set to different tables.)</p>

fb51a6b789d85113d0976148685b0063c294220drbowen ones) each time that file is needed, and reloads it if the
fb51a6b789d85113d0976148685b0063c294220drbowen modified time indicates it is newer than the one it has
fb51a6b789d85113d0976148685b0063c294220drbowen already loaded. The other values cause it to keep the file

fb51a6b789d85113d0976148685b0063c294220drbowen argument, the request_rec, and should return a status code,
fb51a6b789d85113d0976148685b0063c294220drbowen which is either an HTTP error code, or the constants defined
fb51a6b789d85113d0976148685b0063c294220drbowen in the apache2 module: apache2.OK, apache2.DECLINED, or

fb51a6b789d85113d0976148685b0063c294220drbowen want to do the translation it should just return
fb51a6b789d85113d0976148685b0063c294220drbowen apache2.DECLINED. If the request should stop processing, then
fb51a6b789d85113d0976148685b0063c294220drbowen return apache2.DONE.</p>
