Considerations for building dynamic modules on Windows platforms
There are restrictions that we must consider when building dynamic modules for Windows platforms.
The following restrictions apply when building a module to run with IBM HTTP Server:
- Link our dynamic module to the libraries that are contained in lib directory where the server is installed.
- The Apache HTTP Server module API is defined by the header files that are contained in the include directory where the server is installed. Our module should include any of these header files as needed.
- We must not modify any file or data structure that is contained in any file in the include directory where the server is installed.
