Hi,

I am running apache webserver(2.4 version) on windows server 2012.

I want to create a .so module which I can load on apache.

Can anyone help me on how to create .so files on windows? or else can anyone provide me a sample code?


Thanks
Rosy

Hi Rosy,

the .so extension is a bit misleading. The naming comes from the origins on linux. All modules on windows are dll files with the .so extension in the name.

a very easy and short example module can be found here https://github.com/JBlond/mod_moo
There is also a small how to compile it in the readme file.

if you still have a question please ask again.

@JBlond

You should probably add a /manifest in the link lines for VS 2013 & 2015 for moo cow. I actually do not think you have to embed manifests anymore but it doesn't hurt and you will not get one in these versions without the /manifest switch so the embedding (MT) will fail, not that it matters it just looks ugly when it happens.

I never used that flag and it always worked with VC9 and VC 11.

I thought that 2013 and 2015 so longer need that MT line at all. Am I wrong?

No you are not wrong. I was just saying that following those instruction on VC12/14 the MT part will error, possibly causing those who do not know, to think they have an unusable module.
