    36      <p>In general, a hook function is one that Apache will call at
    37      some point during the processing of a request. Modules can
    38      provide functions that are called, and specify when they get
    39      called in comparison to other modules.</p>

    45  <div class="section">
    46  <h2><a name="create" id="create">Creating a hook function</a></h2>
    47      <p>In order to create a new hook, four things need to be
    48      done:</p>
    49  
    50      <h3><a name="create-declare" id="create-declare">Declare the hook function</a></h3>
    51        <p>Use the <code>AP_DECLARE_HOOK</code> macro, which needs to be given
    52        the return type of the hook function, the name of the hook, and the
    53        arguments. For example, if the hook returns an <code>int</code> and
    54        takes a <code>request_rec *</code> and an <code>int</code> and is
    55        called <code>do_something</code>, then declare it like this:</p>
    56        <div class="example"><p><code>
    57          AP_DECLARE_HOOK(int, do_something, (request_rec *r, int n))
    58        </code></p></div>
    59  
    60        <p>This should go in a header which modules will include if
    61        they want to use the hook.</p>
    62      
    63  
    64      <h3><a name="create-create" id="create-create">Create the hook structure</a></h3>
    65        <p>Each source file that exports a hook has a private structure
    66        which is used to record the module functions that use the hook.
    67        This is declared as follows:</p>
    68  
    69        <div class="example"><p><code>
    70          APR_HOOK_STRUCT(<br />
    71          <span class="indent">
    72            APR_HOOK_LINK(do_something)<br />
    73            ...<br />
    74          </span>
    75          )
    76        </code></p></div>
    77      
    78  
    79      <h3><a name="create-implement" id="create-implement">Implement the hook caller</a></h3>
    80        <p>The source file that exports the hook has to implement a
    81        function that will call the hook. There are currently three
    82        possible ways to do this. In all cases, the calling function is
    83        called <code>ap_run_<var>hookname</var>()</code>.</p>
    84  
    85        <h4>Void hooks</h4>
    86          <p>If the return value of a hook is <code>void</code>, then all the
    87          hooks are called, and the caller is implemented like this:</p>
    88  
    89          <div class="example"><p><code>
    90            AP_IMPLEMENT_HOOK_VOID(do_something, (request_rec *r, int n), (r, n))
    91          </code></p></div>
    92  
    93          <p>The second and third arguments are the dummy argument
    94          declaration and the dummy arguments as they will be used when
    95          calling the hook. In other words, this macro expands to
    96          something like this:</p>
    97  
    98          <div class="example"><p><code>
    99            void ap_run_do_something(request_rec *r, int n)<br />
   100            {<br />
   101            <span class="indent">
   102              ...<br />
   103              do_something(r, n);<br />
   104            </span>
   105            }
   106          </code></p></div>
   107        
   108  
   109        <h4>Hooks that return a value</h4>
   110          <p>If the hook returns a value, then it can either be run until
   111          the first hook that does something interesting, like so:</p>
   112  
   113          <div class="example"><p><code>
   114            AP_IMPLEMENT_HOOK_RUN_FIRST(int, do_something, (request_rec *r, int n), (r, n), DECLINED)
   115          </code></p></div>
   116  
   117          <p>The first hook that does <em>not</em> return <code>DECLINED</code>
   118          stops the loop and its return value is returned from the hook
   119          caller. Note that <code>DECLINED</code> is the traditional 
   120          hook return value meaning "I didn't do anything", but it can be
   121          whatever suits you.</p>
   122  
   123          <p>Alternatively, all hooks can be run until an error occurs.
   124          This boils down to permitting <em>two</em> return values, one of
   125          which means "I did something, and it was OK" and the other
   126          meaning "I did nothing". The first function that returns a
   127          value other than one of those two stops the loop, and its
   128          return is the return value. Declare these like so:</p>
   129  
   130          <div class="example"><p><code>
   131            AP_IMPLEMENT_HOOK_RUN_ALL(int, do_something, (request_rec *r, int n), (r, n), OK, DECLINED)
   132          </code></p></div>
   133  
   134          <p>Again, <code>OK</code> and <code>DECLINED</code> are the traditional
   135          values. You can use what you want.</p>
   136        
   137      
   138  
   139      <h3><a name="create-call" id="create-call">Call the hook callers</a></h3>
   140        <p>At appropriate moments in the code, call the hook caller,
   141        like so:</p>
   142  
   143        <div class="example"><p><code>
   144          int n, ret;<br />
   145          request_rec *r;<br />
   146          <br />
   147          ret=ap_run_do_something(r, n);
   148        </code></p></div>
   149      
   150  </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
   151  <div class="section">
   152  <h2><a name="hooking" id="hooking">Hooking the hook</a></h2>
   153      <p>A module that wants a hook to be called needs to do two

   156      <h3><a name="hooking-implement" id="hooking-implement">Implement the hook function</a></h3>

   166          </span>
   167          }

   176        <div class="example"><p><code>
   177          static void my_register_hooks()<br />

   179          <span class="indent">
   180            ap_hook_do_something(my_something_doer, NULL, NULL, APR_HOOK_MIDDLE);<br />
   181          </span>
   182          }<br />
   183          <br />
   184          mode MODULE_VAR_EXPORT my_module =<br />
   185          {<br />
   186          <span class="indent">
   187            ...<br />
   188            my_register_hooks       /* register hooks */<br />
   189          </span>
   190          };
   191        </code></p></div>
   192      
   193  
   194      <h3><a name="hooking-order" id="hooking-order">Controlling hook calling order</a></h3>
   195        <p>In the example above, we didn't use the three arguments in
   196        the hook registration function that control calling order.
   197        There are two mechanisms for doing this. The first, rather
   198        crude, method, allows us to specify roughly where the hook is
   199        run relative to other modules. The final argument control this.
   200        There are three possible values: <code>APR_HOOK_FIRST</code>,
   201        <code>APR_HOOK_MIDDLE</code> and <code>APR_HOOK_LAST</code>.</p>
   202  
   203        <p>All modules using any particular value may be run in any
   204        order relative to each other, but, of course, all modules using
   205        <code>APR_HOOK_FIRST</code> will be run before <code>APR_HOOK_MIDDLE</code>
   206        which are before <code>APR_HOOK_LAST</code>. Modules that don't care
   207        when they are run should use <code>APR_HOOK_MIDDLE</code>. <em>These 
   208        values are spaced out, so that positions like <code>APR_HOOK_FIRST-2</code>
   209        are possible to hook slightly earlier than other functions.</em></p>
   210  
   211        <p>Note that there are two more values,
   212        <code>APR_HOOK_REALLY_FIRST</code> and <code>APR_HOOK_REALLY_LAST</code>. These
   213        should only be used by the hook exporter.</p>
   214  
   215        <p>The other method allows finer control. When a module knows
   216        that it must be run before (or after) some other modules, it
   217        can specify them by name. The second (third) argument is a
   218        NULL-terminated array of strings consisting of the names of
   219        modules that must be run before (after) the current module. For
   220        example, suppose we want "mod_xyz.c" and "mod_abc.c" to run
   221        before we do, then we'd hook as follows:</p>
   222  
   223        <div class="example"><p><code>
   224          static void register_hooks()<br />
   225          {<br />
   226          <span class="indent">
   227            static const char * const aszPre[] = { "mod_xyz.c", "mod_abc.c", NULL };<br />
   228            <br />
   229            ap_hook_do_something(my_something_doer, aszPre, NULL, APR_HOOK_MIDDLE);<br />
   230          </span>
   231          }
   232        </code></p></div>
   233  
   234        <p>Note that the sort used to achieve this is stable, so
   235        ordering set by <code>APR_HOOK_<var>ORDER</var></code> is preserved, as far
   236        as is possible.</p>
