[Israel.pm] mod_perl 2 newnie question

[semuel]

Hello There.

 

Here is a code from the mod_perl documentation. 

The question is: what is $r? I've seen it being used as if it's all the
objects.

In the example below, is $r Apache::RequestRec or Apache::RequestIO?

--- Start Example ---

package MyApache::Deparse;

use strict;

use warnings;

use Apache::RequestRec ();

use Apache::RequestIO ();

use B::Deparse ();

use Apache::Const -compile => 'OK';

sub handler {

     my $r = shift;

     $r->content_type('text/plain');

     $r->print('sub handler ', B::Deparse->new->coderef2text(\&handler));

     return Apache::OK;

}

1;
