NAME

       httpd_conf - Configuration utility functions to be used by the Erlang
	   Web server API programmer.

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides the Erlang Webserver API programmer with utility functions for adding run-time configuration directives.

EXPORTS

       check_enum(EnumString,ValidEnumStrings) -> Result

	      Types  EnumString = string()
		     ValidEnumStrings = [string()]
		     Result = {ok,atom()} | {error,not_valid}

	      check_enum/2 checks if EnumString is a valid enumeration of ValidEnumStrings in which case it is returned as an atom.

       clean(String) -> Stripped

	      Types  String = Stripped = string()

	      clean/1 removes leading and/or trailing white spaces from String .

       custom_clean(String,Before,After) -> Stripped

	      Types  Before = After = regexp()
		     String = Stripped = string()

	      custom_clean/3 removes leading and/or trailing white spaces and custom characters from String . Before and After are regular expres-
	      sions, as defined in regexp(3erl) , describing the custom characters.

       is_directory(FilePath) -> Result

	      Types  FilePath = string()
		     Result = {ok,Directory} | {error,Reason}
		     Directory = string()
		     Reason = string() | enoent | eaccess | enotdir | FileInfo
		     FileInfo = File info record

	      is_directory/1 checks if FilePath is a directory in which case it is returned. Please read file(3erl) for a description of enoent  ,
	      eaccess  and  enotdir  .	The definition of the file info record can be found by including file.hrl from the kernel application, see
	      file(3erl).

       is_file(FilePath) -> Result

	      Types  FilePath = string()
		     Result = {ok,File} | {error,Reason}
		     File = string()
		     Reason = string() | enoent | eaccess | enotdir | FileInfo
		     FileInfo = File info record

	      is_file/1 checks if FilePath is a regular file in which case it is returned. Read file(3erl) for a description of enoent	,  eaccess
	      and enotdir . The definition of the file info record can be found by including file.hrl from the kernel application, see file(3erl).

       make_integer(String) -> Result

	      Types  String = string()
		     Result = {ok,integer()} | {error,nomatch}

	      make_integer/1 returns an integer representation of String .

NAME

       inets - The inets services API

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides the most basic API to the clients and servers, that are part of the Inets application, such as start and stop.

COMMON DATA TYPES

       Type definitions that are used more than once in this module:

       service() = ftpc | tftp | httpc | httpd

       property() = atom()

EXPORTS

       services() -> [{Service, Pid}]

	      Types  Service = service()
		     Pid = pid()

	      Returns a list of currently running services.

   Note:
       Services started as stand_alone will not be listed.

       services_info() -> [{Service, Pid, Info}]

	      Types  Service = service()
		     Pid = pid()
		     Info = [{Option, Value}]
		     Option = property()
		     Value = term()

	      Returns  a  list of currently running services where each service is described by a [{Option, Value}] list. The information given in
	      the list is specific for each service and it is probable that each service will have its own info function that gives you even  more
	      details about the service.

       service_names() -> [Service]

	      Types  Service = service()

	      Returns a list of available service names.

       start() ->
       start(Type) -> ok | {error, Reason}

	      Types  Type = permanent | transient | temporary

	      Starts the Inets application. Default type is temporary. See also application(3erl)

       stop() -> ok

	      Stops the inets application. See also application(3erl)

       start(Service, ServiceConfig) -> {ok, Pid} | {error, Reason}
       start(Service, ServiceConfig, How) -> {ok, Pid} | {error, Reason}

	      Types  Service = service()
		     ServiceConfig = [{Option, Value}]
		     Option = property()
		     Value = term()
		     How = inets | stand_alone - default is inets

	      Dynamically starts an inets service after the inets application has been started.

   Note:
       Dynamically  started services will not be handled by application takeover and failover behavior when inets is run as a distributed applica-
       tion. Nor will they be automatically restarted when the inets application is restarted, but as long as the inets application is up and run-
       ning  they  will  be supervised and may be soft code upgraded. Services started as stand_alone , e.i. the service is not started as part of
       the inets application, will lose all OTP application benefits such as soft upgrade. The "stand_alone-service" will be linked to the process
       that  started  it. In most cases some of the supervision functionality will still be in place and in some sense the calling process has now
       become the top supervisor.

       stop(Service, Reference) -> ok | {error, Reason}

	      Types  Service = service() | stand_alone
		     Reference = pid() | term() - service specified reference
		     Reason = term()

	      Stops a started service of the inets application or takes down a "stand_alone-service" gracefully. When the  stand_alone	option	is
	      used in start, only the pid is a valid argument to stop.
