But what you're asking for -- a configuration point for methods -- would be implemented much as I've shown in my previous emails, much like a dispatchmod. The dispatchmod is as early in the request handling process as you can get after the formation of the #arg{}. The dispatchmod code I provided requires less configuration than what you're showing, even for the default case, plus if having to have a new module concerns you, the dispatch/1 function can be added to some other existing module you already have instead.<span><font color="#888888"><div><br></div><div>--steve<br><div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div></div></font></span></div><div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Feb 13, 2015 at 4:30 AM, Bogdan Andu <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:bog495@gmail.com" target="_blank">bog495@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div>Yes but the point is to have a default configuration that can be overridden by such a mechanism<br></div>if one is configured.<br></div>The 99 percent of cases only need a default behaviour.<br><br></div>The way I see this is to have something like that (all in one):<br><br></div><LIMIT POST GET><br></div><div> mod_405=my_405_handle_module<br>....<br></div></LIMIT><br><br></div>in this way we can also customize the response if a method other than GET or POST is sent to the server<br></div><div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Feb 13, 2015 at 10:17 AM, Imants Cekusins <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:imantc@gmail.com" target="_blank">imantc@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex"><span>> Traffic with methods not allowed should be discarded with 405<br>

</span>you see, someone else might prefer another action depending on method<br>
not allowed.<br>
<br>
a dedicated attribute may be convenient but then someone would ask:<br>
"how do I change the response code? how do I redirect?". Current<br>
approach gives you choice.<br>
<br>
one of those cases when there is more than one approach, a prefers A,<br>
b prefers B. Both have a valid point.<br>
