In general, a hook function is one that Apache will call at some point during the processing of a request. Modules can provide functions that are called, and specify when they get called in comparison to other modules.
In order to create a new hook, four things need to be done:
Use the AP_DECLARE_HOOK macro, which needs to be given
the return type of the hook function, the name of the hook, and the
arguments. For example, if the hook returns an int and
takes a request_rec * and an int and is
called do_something, then declare it like this:
AP_DECLARE_HOOK(int, do_something, (request_rec *r, int n))
This should go in a header which modules will include if they want to use the hook.
Each source file that exports a hook has a private structure which is used to record the module functions that use the hook. This is declared as follows:
APR_HOOK_STRUCT(
APR_HOOK_LINK(do_something)
...
)
The source file that exports the hook has to implement a
function that will call the hook. There are currently three
possible ways to do this. In all cases, the calling function is
called ap_run_hookname().
If the return value of a hook is void, then all the
hooks are called, and the caller is implemented like this:
AP_IMPLEMENT_HOOK_VOID(do_something, (request_rec *r, int n), (r, n))
The second and third arguments are the dummy argument declaration and the dummy arguments as they will be used when calling the hook. In other words, this macro expands to something like this:
void ap_run_do_something(request_rec *r, int n)
{
...
do_something(r, n);
}
If the hook returns a value, then it can either be run until the first hook that does something interesting, like so:
AP_IMPLEMENT_HOOK_RUN_FIRST(int, do_something, (request_rec *r, int n), (r, n), DECLINED)
The first hook that does not return DECLINED
stops the loop and its return value is returned from the hook
caller. Note that DECLINED is the tradition Apache
hook return meaning "I didn't do anything", but it can be
whatever suits you.
Alternatively, all hooks can be run until an error occurs. This boils down to permitting two return values, one of which means "I did something, and it was OK" and the other meaning "I did nothing". The first function that returns a value other than one of those two stops the loop, and its return is the return value. Declare these like so:
AP_IMPLEMENT_HOOK_RUN_ALL(int, do_something, (request_rec *r, int n), (r, n), OK, DECLINED)
Again, OK和DECLINED are the traditional
values. You can use what you want.
At appropriate moments in the code, call the hook caller, like so:
int n, ret;
request_rec *r;
ret=ap_run_do_something(r, n);
A module that wants a hook to be called needs to do two things.
Include the appropriate header, and define a static function of the correct type:
static int my_something_doer(request_rec *r, int n)
{
...
return OK;
}
During initialisation, Apache will call each modules hook registering function, which is included in the module structure:
static void my_register_hooks()
{
ap_hook_do_something(my_something_doer, NULL, NULL, APR_HOOK_MIDDLE);
}
mode MODULE_VAR_EXPORT my_module =
{
...
my_register_hooks /* register hooks */
};
In the example above, we didn't use the three arguments in
the hook registration function that control calling order.
There are two mechanisms for doing this. The first, rather
crude, method, allows us to specify roughly where the hook is
run relative to other modules. The final argument control this.
There are three possible values: APR_HOOK_FIRST,
APR_HOOK_MIDDLE和APR_HOOK_LAST.
All modules using any particular value may be run in any
order relative to each other, but, of course, all modules using
APR_HOOK_FIRST will be run before APR_HOOK_MIDDLE
which are before APR_HOOK_LAST. Modules that don't care
when they are run should use APR_HOOK_MIDDLE. (I spaced
these out so people could do stuff like APR_HOOK_FIRST-2
to get in slightly earlier, but is this wise? - Ben)
Note that there are two more values,
APR_HOOK_REALLY_FIRST和APR_HOOK_REALLY_LAST. These
should only be used by the hook exporter.
The other method allows finer control. When a module knows that it must be run before (or after) some other modules, it can specify them by name. The second (third) argument is a NULL-terminated array of strings consisting of the names of modules that must be run before (after) the current module. For example, suppose we want "mod_xyz.c" and "mod_abc.c" to run before we do, then we'd hook as follows:
static void register_hooks()
{
static const char * const aszPre[] = { "mod_xyz.c", "mod_abc.c", NULL };
ap_hook_do_something(my_something_doer, aszPre, NULL, APR_HOOK_MIDDLE);
}
Note that the sort used to achieve this is stable, so
ordering set by APR_HOOK_ORDER is preserved, as far
as is possible.
