mod_perl2 $Apache::Server::Starting

What are the mod_perl 2 equivalents of $Apache::Server::Starting and
$Apache::Server::ReStarting? Or is there another way to determine if code is
being run in the parent or child process?

Thanks.

Thanks, but I do not see how Apache2::ServerUtil::restarting() does the same
thing. The $Apache::Server::Starting and $Apache::Server::ReStarting are,
respectively, 1 and 0 during start, 0 and 1 during restart, and 0 and 0 when
neither starting nor restarting. The restarting() function returns 1 during
start, 2 during (first) restart, but then still returns 2 when neither
starting nor restarting. So how can I tell if its neither starting nor
restarting?

I haven't used this. I see that Apache::compat does the following:

($Apache::Server::Starting, $Apache::Server::ReStarting) =
Apache2::ServerUtil::restart_count() == 1 ? (1, 0) : (0, 1);

If the count stays at 2, then that probably says it is restarting indefinitely.

If you just want to know when you are no longer in the parent process,
you could use a PerlChildInitHandler to set a flag indicating this.
