Scope of Configuration
The above example used OR_ALL, to say that MyFirstDirective
can be used anywhere in httpd.conf or in any .htaccess file (provided
htaccess is enabled on the server). Other options we could have used
include:
- RSRC_CONF - httpd.conf at top level or in a VirtualHost context.
All directives using server config should use this, as other
contexts are meaningless for a server config.
- ACCESS_CONF - httpd.conf in a Directory context. This is appropriate
to per-dir config directives for a server administrator only,
and is often combined (using OR) with RSRC_CONF to allow its use anywhere
within httpd.conf.
- OR_LIMIT, OR_OPTIONS, OR_FILEINFO, OR_AUTHCFG, OR_INDEXES - extend
to allow use of the directive in .htaccess according to AllowOverride
setting.
