# Apache2::FilterRec(3pm)

Perl API for manipulating the Apache filter record

## NAME

Apache2::FilterRec - Perl API for manipulating the Apache filter record

## Synopsis

```
  use Apache2::Filter ();
  use Apache2::FilterRec ();

  my $frec = $filter->frec;
  print "filter name is:", $frec->name;
```

## Description

`"Apache2::FilterRec"` provides an access to the filter record structure.

The `"Apache2::FilterRec"` object is retrieved by calling `frec()`:

```
  $frec = $filter->frec;
```

## API

`"Apache2::FilterRec"` provides the following functions and/or methods:

### "name"

The registered name for this filter

```
  $name = $frec->name();
```

- obj: $frec ( "Apache2::FilterRec object" )

  - ret: $name (string)

  - since: 2.0.00

  mod\_perl filters have four names:

```
  modperl_request_output
  modperl_request_input
  modperl_connection_output
  modperl_connection_input
```

You can see the names of the non-mod\_perl filters as well. By calling `"$filter->next->frec->name"` you can get the name of the next filter in the chain.

Example:

Let's print the name of the current and the filter that follows it:

```
  use Apache2::Filter ();
  use Apache2::FilterRec ();
  for my $frec ($filter->frec, $filter->next->frec) {
      print "Name: ", $frec->name;
  }
```
