APR::OS - Perl API for Platform-specific APR API

NAME

APR::OS - Perl API for Platform-specific APR API

Synopsis

  use APR::OS ();


  # get thread id
  my $tid_obj = APR::OS::thread_current();
  my $tid = $$tid_obj;

Description

APR::OS provides the Perl interface to platform-specific APR API.

You should be extremely careful when relying on any of the API provided by this module, since they are no portable. So if you use those you application will be non-portable as well.

API

APR::OS provides the following methods:

thread_current

Get the thread ID

  $tid_obj = APR::OS::thread_current();
ret: $tid_obj ( APR::OS::Thread object )
To get the thread id dereference it: $$tid_obj.

That value is a thread ID under threaded MPMs, otherwise 0.

since: 1.99_12

Example:

    use Apache::MPM ();
    use APR::OS ();
    if (Apache::MPM->is_threaded) {
        my $tid_obj = APR::OS::thread_current();
        print "TID: $$tid_obj";
    }
    else {
        print "PID: $$";
    }
