<p>This object is needed by <code><a>APR::Bucket</a></code> and <code><a>APR::Brigade</a></code> methods/functions.</p>

<h2 id="client_socket"><code>client_socket</code></h2>

<p>Get/set the client socket</p>

<pre><code>  $socket      = $c-&gt;client_socket;

<h2 id="get_remote_host"><code>get_remote_host</code></h2>

<p>Lookup the client&#39;s DNS hostname or IP address</p>

<pre><code>  $remote_host = $c-&gt;remote_host();
  $remote_host = $c-&gt;remote_host($type);
  $remote_host = $c-&gt;remote_host($type, $dir_config);</code></pre>

<p>The type of lookup to perform:</p>

<dl>

<dt id="Apache2::Const::REMOTE_DOUBLE_REV"><code>Apache2::Const::REMOTE_DOUBLE_REV</code></dt>
<dd>

<p>will always force a DNS lookup, and also force a double reverse lookup, regardless of the <code>HostnameLookups</code> setting. The result is the (double reverse checked) hostname, or undef if any of the lookups fail.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="Apache2::Const::REMOTE_HOST"><code>Apache2::Const::REMOTE_HOST</code></dt>
<dd>

<p>returns the hostname, or <code>undef</code> if the hostname lookup fails. It will force a DNS lookup according to the <code>HostnameLookups</code> setting.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="Apache2::Const::REMOTE_NAME"><code>Apache2::Const::REMOTE_NAME</code></dt>
<dd>

<p>returns the hostname, or the dotted quad if the hostname lookup fails. It will force a DNS lookup according to the <code>HostnameLookups</code> setting.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="opt-arg2:-dir_config-Apache2::ConfVector-object">opt arg2: <code>$dir_config</code> ( <code><a>Apache2::ConfVector object</a></code> )</dt>
<dd>

<p>The directory config vector from the request. It&#39;s needed to find the container in which the directive <code>HostnameLookups</code> is set. To get one for the current request use <code><a>$r-&gt;per_dir_config</a></code>.</p>

<p>By default, <code>undef</code> is passed, in which case it&#39;s the same as if <code>HostnameLookups</code> was set to <code>Off</code>.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="ret:-remote_host-string-undef">ret: <code>$remote_host</code> ( string/undef )</dt>
<dd>

<p>The remote hostname. If the configuration directive <b>HostNameLookups</b> is set to off, this returns the dotted decimal representation of the client&#39;s IP address instead. Might return <code>undef</code> if the hostname is not known.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="since:-2.0.004">since: 2.0.00</dt>
<dd>

</dd>
</dl>

<p>The result of <code>get_remote_host</code> call is cached in <code><a href="#C_remote_host_">$c-&gt;remote_host</a></code>. If the latter is set, <code>get_remote_host</code> will return that value immediately, w/o doing any checkups.</p>

<h2 id="id"><code>id</code></h2>

<p>ID of this connection; unique at any point in time</p>

<pre><code>  $id = $c-&gt;id();</code></pre>

<h2 id="keepalive"><code>keepalive</code></h2>

<p>This method answers the question: Should the the connection be kept alive for another HTTP request after the current request is completed?</p>

<pre><code>  $status = $c-&gt;keepalive();
  $status = $c-&gt;keepalive($new_status);</code></pre>

<dl>

<dt id="obj:-c-Apache2::Connection-object7">obj: <code>$c</code> ( <code><a>Apache2::Connection object</a></code> )</dt>
<dd>

</dd>
<dt id="opt-arg1:-new_status-:conn_keepalive-constant">opt arg1: <code>$new_status</code> ( <code><a>:conn_keepalive constant</a></code> )</dt>
<dd>

<p>Normally you should not mess with setting this option when handling the HTTP protocol. If you do (for example when sending your own headers set with <code><a>$r-&gt;assbackwards</a></code>) -- take a look at the ap_set_keepalive() function in <i>httpd-2.0/modules/http/http_protocol.c</i>.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="ret:-status-:conn_keepalive-constant">ret: <code>$status</code> ( <code><a>:conn_keepalive constant</a></code> )</dt>
<dd>

<p>The method does <b>not</b> return true or false, but one of the states which can be compared against (<code><a>:conn_keepalive constants</a></code>).</p>

</dd>
<dt id="since:-2.0.007">since: 2.0.00</dt>
<dd>

</dd>
</dl>

<p>Unless you set this value yourself when implementing non-HTTP protocols, it&#39;s only relevant for HTTP requests.</p>

<p>For example:</p>

<pre><code>  use Apache2::RequestRec ();
  use Apache2::Connection ();
  
  use Apache2::Const -compile =&gt; qw(:conn_keepalive);
  ...
  my $c = $r-&gt;connection;
  if ($c-&gt;keepalive == Apache2::Const::CONN_KEEPALIVE) {
      # do something
  }
  elsif ($c-&gt;keepalive == Apache2::Const::CONN_CLOSE) {
      # do something else
  }
  elsif ($c-&gt;keepalive == Apache2::Const::CONN_UNKNOWN) {
      # do yet something else
  }
  else {
      # die &quot;unknown state&quot;;
  }</code></pre>

<p>Notice that new states could be added later by Apache, so your code should make no assumptions and do things only if the desired state matches.</p>

<h2 id="keepalives"><code>keepalives</code></h2>

<p>How many requests were already served over the current connection.</p>

<dd>

<p>Set the number of served requests over the current connection. Normally you won&#39;t do that when handling HTTP requests. (But see below a note regarding <code><a>$r-&gt;assbackwards</a></code>).</p>

</dd>
<dt id="ret:-served-integer">ret: <code>$served</code> (integer)</dt>
<dd>

<p>How many requests were already served over the current connection.</p>

<p>In most handlers, but HTTP output filter handlers, that value doesn&#39;t count the current request. For the latter it&#39;ll count the current request.</p>

<p>This method is only relevant for <a href="#C_keepalive_">keepalive</a> connections. The core connection output filter <code>ap_http_header_filter</code> increments this value when the response headers are sent and it decides that the connection should not be closed (see <code>ap_set_keepalive()</code>).</p>

<p>If you send your own set of HTTP headers with <code><a>$r-&gt;assbackwards</a></code>, which includes the <code>Keep-Alive</code> HTTP response header, you must make sure to increment the <code>keepalives</code> counter.</p>
