apache build process

[Andrew Critchlow <a_critchlow@hotmail.com>]

Hi all,

I am busy learning how to build apache from source.
I see how there are two different ways to do this, via using DSO and compiling in modules. How do you do both these methods? In the examples i have seen, When using DSO you always specify
on the command line which module to load in and the other method you edit the configuration.tmpl file.
 
Can you compile in modules fully on the command line or do you have to edit the file?

If you can specify on the command line, what distinguishes between a compiled in module and a module using DSO?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

thanks for your time
