}

=head2 getPreambleBytes

Returns the bytes the framework has to write back to client as a Stream preamble.

It is called by the framework like this ($resp is a Apache2::REST::Response):

    $this->getPreambleBytes($resp) ;

=cut

sub getPreambleBytes{
    my ($self,  $resp ) = @_ ;
    confess("Please implement me in an application subclass");
}


=head2 getNextBytes

Returns the next bytes of the stream, or undef at the end of the stream.

Called by the framework like that:

while( defined my $bytes = $this->getNextBytes($response) ){
  ...
}

=cut

sub getNextBytes{
    my ($self, $resp) = @_;
    confess("Please implement me in an application subclass");
}

=head2 getPostambleBytes

Returns the last bytes to write in the stream when the stream is finished.

Called by the framework like that:

$this->getPostambleBytes($response);

=cut

sub getPostambleBytes{
    my ($self, $resp) = @_;
    confess("Please implement me in an application subclass");
}

=head2 handleModPerlResponse

Handles writing this response in a mod perl request object at response time.

Beware, this method switches STDOUT to binmode.

=cut

sub handleModPerlResponse{
    my ($self , $r , $resp , $retCode ) = @_;
    $r->content_type($self->mimeType($resp));
    $resp->cleanup();
    
    if ( $retCode && ( $retCode  != Apache2::Const::HTTP_OK ) ){
        $r->status($retCode);
    }

    
    binmode STDOUT;
    print $self->getPreambleBytes($resp);
    $r->rflush();
    while( defined ( my $nextBytes = $self->getNextBytes($resp) ) ){
	print $nextBytes;
	$r->rflush();
    }
    print $self->getPostambleBytes($resp);
    $r->rflush();
    return Apache2::Const::OK;

}
