Me and alot of people are waiting patinently for nginx persistant
connection
support for http proxy backends. Ive been looking into writing a module
myself but finaly given up (I realised how much I really do hate C).
Please Igor, Please, its probably the most requested feature ever, and
it
isnt too complicated for a C expert to add. Basicly this was my
methodology
- probably not the most efficient but simple.
- before backend connect load connections from shared memory, just a
simple
array of structs and lock - Replace connect with if statemnt, if an open non in use connection is
found in the data use it, else make new connection. - If new connection made, add to struct, and save shared memory.
- Release lock
Of course checking connection status and all that would be recomended,
but
this was my plan for basic support (If only I understood the nginx code
better).
So yeah, Igor - Please.
