<title>Expressions in Apache HTTP Server</title>
<summary>
- <p>Historically, there are several syntax variants for expressions used to express
- a condition in the different modules of the Apache HTTP Server.
- There is some ongoing effort to only use a single variant, called <em>ap_expr</em>,
- for all configuration directives.
- This document describes the <em>ap_expr</em> expression parser.

+ <p><a
+ href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backus%E2%80%93Naur_Form">Backus-Naur
+ Form</a> (BNF) is a notation technique for context-free grammars,
+ often used to describe the syntax of languages used in computing.
+ In most cases, expressions are used to express boolean values.
+ For these, the starting point in the BNF is <code>expr</code>.
+ However, a few directives like <directive
+ module="mod_log_debug">LogMessage</directive> accept expressions
+ that evaluate to a string value. For those, the starting point in
+ the BNF is <code>string</code>.
+ </p>
<blockquote>
<pre>
expr ::= "<strong>true</strong>" | "<strong>false</strong>"
rebackref ::= "<strong>$</strong>" [0-9]
-function ::= funcname "<strong>(</strong>" word "<strong>)</strong>"
+function ::= funcname "<strong>(</strong>" wordlist "<strong>)</strong>"
listfunction ::= listfuncname "<strong>(</strong>" word "<strong>)</strong>"
</pre>
<code>%{REMOTE_USER}</code> will not be set in this case.</p>
<p>The following variables provide the values of the named HTTP request
- headers. The values of other headers can be obtained witht the
- <code>req</code> <a href="#functions">function</a>.</p>
+ headers. The values of other headers can be obtained with the
+ <code>req</code> <a href="#functions">function</a>. Using these
+ variables may cause the header name to be added to the Vary
+ header of the HTTP response, except where otherwise noted for the
+ directive accepting the expression. The <code>req_novary</code>
+ <a href="#functions">function</a> may be used to circumvent this
+ behavior.</p>

- <p>In addition to string-valued functions, there are also list-valued functions which
- take one string as argument and return a wordlist, i.e. a list of strings. The wordlist
- can be used with the special <code>-in</code> operator.
- Functions names are not case sensitive.
- Modules may register additional functions.</p>
+ <p>The functions marked as "restricted" in the final column are not

+
+ <p>The functions marked as "ordering" in the final column require some
+ consideration for the ordering of different components of the server,
+ especially when the function is used within the

+ evaluated relatively early.</p>
+ <note>
+ <title>Environment variable ordering</title>
+ When environment variables are looked up within an
+ <<directive module="core">If</directive>> condition, it's important
+ to consider how extremely early in request processing that this
+ resolution occurs. As a guideline, any directive defined outside of virtual host
+ context (directory, location, htaccess) is not likely to have yet had a
+ chance to execute. <directive module="mod_setenvif">SetEnvIf</directive>
+ in virtual host scope is one directive that runs prior to this resolution
+ <br/>
+ <br/>
+ When <code>reqenv</code> is used outside of <<directive module="core"
+ >If</directive>>, the resolution will generally occur later, but the
+ exact timing depends on the directive the expression has been used within.
+ </note>
+
+ <p>When the functions <code>req</code> or <code>http</code> are used,
+ the header name will automatically be added to the Vary header of the
+ HTTP response, except where otherwise noted for the directive accepting
+ the expression. The <code>req_novary</code> function can be used to
+ prevent names from being added to the Vary header.</p>
