# The www/ap2-mod_perl port

## ap2-mod_perl-2.0.4p5 – module that embeds a Perl interpreter into Apache2

## Description

    The Apache/Perl integration project brings together the full power of the
    Perl programming language and the Apache HTTP server. This is achieved by
    linking the Perl runtime library into the server and providing an object
    oriented Perl interface to the server's C language API.

    These pieces are seamlessly glued together by the `mod_perl' server
    plugin, making it is possible to write Apache modules entirely in Perl.
    In addition, the persistent interpreter embedded in the server avoids the
    overhead of starting an external interpreter program and the additional
    Perl start-up (compile) time.
