<p>This module implements the Internet Server extension API. It
35
allows Internet Server extensions (<em>e.g.</em> ISAPI .dll
36
modules) to be served by Apache for Windows, subject to the
37
noted restrictions.</p>
39
<p>ISAPI extension modules (.dll files) are written by third
40
parties. The Apache Group does not author these modules, so we
41
provide no support for them. Please contact the ISAPI's author
42
directly if you are experiencing problems running their ISAPI
43
extension. <strong>Please <em>do not</em> post such problems to
44
Apache's lists or bug reporting pages.</strong></p>

65
<p>In the server configuration file, use
66
the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code> directive to
67
associate ISAPI files with the <code>isapi-handler</code> handler, and map
68
it to them with their file extensions. To enable any .dll file to be
69
processed as an ISAPI extension, edit the httpd.conf file and add the
71
<div class="example"><p><code>
72
AddHandler isapi-handler .dll
75
<div class="note">In older versions of the Apache server,
76
<code>isapi-isa</code> was the proper handler name, rather than
77
<code>isapi-handler</code>. For compatibility, configurations may
78
continue using <code>isapi-isa</code> through all versions of Apache
81
<p>There is no capability within the Apache server to leave a
82
requested module loaded. However, you may preload and keep a
83
specific module loaded by using the following syntax in your
85
<div class="example"><p><code>
86
ISAPICacheFile c:/WebWork/Scripts/ISAPI/mytest.dll
89
<p>Whether or not you have preloaded an ISAPI extension, all
90
ISAPI extensions are governed by the same permissions and
91
restrictions as CGI scripts. That is, <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#options">Options</a></code> <code>ExecCGI</code> must be set for the
92
directory that contains the ISAPI .dll file.</p>
94
<p>Review the <a href="#notes">Additional Notes</a> and the <a href="#journal">Programmer's Journal</a> for additional details

and clarification of the specific ISAPI support offered by

<h2><a name="notes" id="notes">Additional Notes</a></h2>
101
<p>Apache's ISAPI implementation conforms to all of the ISAPI
102
2.0 specification, except for some "Microsoft-specific"
103
extensions dealing with asynchronous I/O. Apache's I/O model
104
does not allow asynchronous reading and writing in a manner
105
that the ISAPI could access. If an ISA tries to access
106
unsupported features, including async I/O, a message is placed
107
in the error log to help with debugging. Since these messages
108
can become a flood, the directive <code>ISAPILogNotSupported
109
Off</code> exists to quiet this noise.</p>
111
<p>Some servers, like Microsoft IIS, load the ISAPI extension
112
into the server and keep it loaded until memory usage is too
113
high, or unless configuration options are specified. Apache
114
currently loads and unloads the ISAPI extension each time it is
115
requested, unless the <code class="directive"><a href="#isapicachefile">ISAPICacheFile</a></code> directive is specified.
116
This is inefficient, but Apache's memory model makes this the
117
most effective method. Many ISAPI modules are subtly
118
incompatible with the Apache server, and unloading these
119
modules helps to ensure the stability of the server.</p>
121
<p>Also, remember that while Apache supports ISAPI Extensions,
122
it <strong>does not support ISAPI Filters</strong>. Support for
123
filters may be added at a later date, but no support is planned

129
<p>If you are programming Apache 2.0 <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_isapi.html">mod_isapi</a></code>
130
modules, you must limit your calls to <code>ServerSupportFunction</code>
131
to the following directives:</p>
134
<dt><code>HSE_REQ_SEND_URL_REDIRECT_RESP</code></dt>
135
<dd>Redirect the user to another location.<br />
136
This must be a fully qualified URL (<em>e.g.</em>
137
<code>http://server/location</code>).</dd>
139
<dt><code>HSE_REQ_SEND_URL</code></dt>
140
<dd>Redirect the user to another location.<br />
141
This cannot be a fully qualified URL, you are not allowed to
142
pass the protocol or a server name (<em>e.g.</em> simply
143
<code>/location</code>).<br />
144
This redirection is handled by the server, not the
146
<div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
147
<p>In their recent documentation, Microsoft appears to have
148
abandoned the distinction between the two
149
<code>HSE_REQ_SEND_URL</code> functions. Apache continues to treat
150
them as two distinct functions with different requirements
154
<dt><code>HSE_REQ_SEND_RESPONSE_HEADER</code></dt>
155
<dd>Apache accepts a response body following the header if it
156
follows the blank line (two consecutive newlines) in the
157
headers string argument. This body cannot contain NULLs,
158
since the headers argument is NULL terminated.</dd>
160
<dt><code>HSE_REQ_DONE_WITH_SESSION</code></dt>
161
<dd>Apache considers this a no-op, since the session will be
162
finished when the ISAPI returns from processing.</dd>
164
<dt><code>HSE_REQ_MAP_URL_TO_PATH</code></dt>
165
<dd>Apache will translate a virtual name to a physical
168
<dt><code>HSE_APPEND_LOG_PARAMETER</code></dt>
170
This logged message may be captured in any of the following
174
<li>in the <code>\"%{isapi-parameter}n\"</code> component in a
175
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_log_config.html#customlog">CustomLog</a></code>
178
<li>in the <code>%q</code> log component with the
179
<code class="directive"><a href="#isapiappendlogtoquery">ISAPIAppendLogToQuery</a></code>
180
<code>On</code> directive</li>
182
<li>in the error log with the <code class="directive"><a href="#isapiappendlogtoerrors">ISAPIAppendLogToErrors</a></code> <code>On</code> directive</li>
185
<p>The first option, the <code>%{isapi-parameter}n</code> component,
186
is always available and preferred.</p>
189
<dt><code>HSE_REQ_IS_KEEP_CONN</code></dt>
190
<dd>Will return the negotiated Keep-Alive status.</dd>
192
<dt><code>HSE_REQ_SEND_RESPONSE_HEADER_EX</code></dt>
193
<dd>Will behave as documented, although the <code>fKeepConn</code>
194
flag is ignored.</dd>
196
<dt><code>HSE_REQ_IS_CONNECTED</code></dt>
197
<dd>Will report false if the request has been aborted.</dd>
200
<p>Apache returns <code>FALSE</code> to any unsupported call to
201
<code>ServerSupportFunction</code>, and sets the
202
<code>GetLastError</code> value to
203
<code>ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER</code>.</p>
205
<p><code>ReadClient</code> retrieves the request body exceeding the
206
initial buffer (defined by <code class="directive"><a href="#isapireadaheadbuffer">ISAPIReadAheadBuffer</a></code>). Based on the
207
<code class="directive">ISAPIReadAheadBuffer</code> setting (number of bytes
208
to buffer prior to calling the ISAPI handler) shorter requests are sent
209
complete to the extension when it is invoked. If the request is
210
longer, the ISAPI extension must use <code>ReadClient</code> to
211
retrieve the remaining request body.</p>
213
<p><code>WriteClient</code> is supported, but only with the
214
<code>HSE_IO_SYNC</code> flag or no option flag (value of
215
<code>0</code>). Any other <code>WriteClient</code> request
216
will be rejected with a return value of <code>FALSE</code>, and a
217
<code>GetLastError</code> value of
218
<code>ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER</code>.</p>
220
<p><code>GetServerVariable</code> is supported, although extended server
221
variables do not exist (as defined by other servers.) All the
222
usual Apache CGI environment variables are available from
223
<code>GetServerVariable</code>, as well as the <code>ALL_HTTP</code>
224
and <code>ALL_RAW</code> values.</p>
226
<p>Apache 2.0 <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_isapi.html">mod_isapi</a></code> supports additional
227
features introduced in later versions of the ISAPI specification,
228
as well as limited emulation of async I/O and the
229
<code>TransmitFile</code> semantics. Apache also supports preloading
230
ISAPI .dlls for performance, neither of which were not available under
231
Apache 1.3 <code>mod_isapi</code>.</p>
