NAME
Net::Server::MultiType - Net::Server personality
SYNOPSIS
use Net::Server::MultiType;
@ISA = qw(Net::Server::MultiType);
sub process_request {
#...code...
}
my @types = qw(PreFork Fork Single);
Net::Server::MultiType->run(server_type=>@types);
DESCRIPTION
Please read the pod on Net::Server first. This module is
a personality, or extension, or sub class, of the
Net::Server module.
This personality is intended to allow for easy use of mul
tiple Net::Server personalities. Given a list of server
types, Net::Server::MultiType will require one at a time
until it finds one that is installed on the system. It
then adds that package to its @ISA, thus inheriting the
methods of that personality.
ARGUMENTS
- In addition to the command line arguments of the
Net::Server base class, Net::Server::MultiType contains
one other configurable parameter. - Key Value Default
server_type 'server_type' 'Single' - server_type
- May be called many times to build up an array or pos
sible server_types. At execution, Net::Server::Multi
Type will find the first available one and then
inherit the methods of that personality
