[naviserver-devel] default filename extension

[John B. <jo...@ma...>]

I was wondering if there was simple of of defining the default filename extension naviserver looks for, like there is for "ns_param directoryfile" but for any url where the filename extension isn't specified in the url.

For example, if you go to:
http://localhost/about

I want "about.adp" to be the file that is loaded.

I've done this in aolserver two ways:

1) with a 404 handler
2) or with a code path in request.c (see code sample below)

/* john buckman added 4/14/06 */
/* check if should add default filename extension of .adp */
/* only if no / on end of url which indicates a directory */
char * dotpos;
if (ds2.string[ds2.length - 1] != '/') {
    /* if not . in the entire url, or if there is a dot before the final / (indicating a . in a
       directory name, which is ok, then add the default filename extension */
    dotpos = strrchr(ds2.string, '.');
    if ((dotpos == NULL) || (strchr(dotpos, '/') != NULL)) {
        Ns_DStringAppend(&ds2, ".adp");
        /* Ns_Log(Notice, "added default extension to get '%s'", ds2.string); */
    }
}
/* end john buckman added */

request->url = ns_strdup(ds2.string);
