Summary: Understaning the Apache Code
Comment: i bought the book to underdtand how apache worked interanlly. the book does a good job of that. however the the code commentry is pretty disjointed. the compilers have done a excellent job of putting together this. we should see more of such types.

Summary: Print out the source code yourself and read it.
Comment: I am disappointed in the actual code commentary, it does NOT do a good job of explaining the code. Most of the time the commentary does nothing more than tell you what a function does - and it is obvious from the name anyway. Apache has a lot of standard programming conventions and internal libraries. I think those should have been covered first and in depth. It would make the Apache source code much more understandable. I read through the first chapter or so of Linux Core Commentary and it seems much more well written.

 

Editorial Reviews:

Adopts and extends the method used by the famous Lion's Commentary on Unix, (ISBN 1-57398-013-7) which still is a much sought after title even 20 years after publication. Uses a horizontal format (11" x 8 3/8" trim size) which allows for exhaustive cross-referencing, space for easy-to-read columns of code, and the book to stay flat while open. Over 500,000 lines of code are excerpted and explained in detail. Includes extensive cross-referencing and architectural flow charts to enhance understanding of the structure of the code. Apache Server Commentary is currently the only commentary-style book available on Apache modules. Covers Apache for both Linux and Windows.
