*There seems to be a link problem when trying to compile the extension in windows xp. Reading the source code, and with the help of luser, I was able to figure out some problems within the code. Minor changes were made to make files in both the "/extension/metrics/build" and "/extensions/metrics/test" folders; Added "USE_STATIC_LIBS=1" so that the compiler knows to use the static library. Will create a patch and post on bugzilla once I'm done.
*Echoing a file back to the extension was pretty straightforward; however, recieving the proper data back was more difficult. Initially, I assumed the data being sent back was an xml file but after reading the source code in-depth, I found that the data was actually compressed with BZIP BZIP2 (x.bz2). Changes were made to the CGI to bunzip2 the data.
*Another problem, similar to problem 2, was that my while loop to read stdin was not recieving all the data properly. With the help of "ctyler" I was able to recieve the data in-tact.
