Net::Server::MultiTypeU(s3e)r


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 multiple 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 possible server_types.
      At execution, Net::Server::MultiType will find the first available one
      and then inherit the methods of that personality
