Awesome, thanks for demystifying this for me!
# go to a string path ("/foo/bar/gorch")
# or action object
if (blessed($command) && $command->isa('Catalyst::Action')) {
$action = $command;
}
else {
$action = $self->_invoke_as_path( $c, "$command", \@args );
}
I'm still at a loss why when I was using the wrong syntax, it was working for
SplashScreen, but the same syntax for ComplianceUpdates wasn't!
And I still can't find where in the docs/tutorial any of this is explained? (a
section and page number would be helpful!)
Regards,
Craig.

True.

It's not :) Catalyst magically converts that for you.
See this:
https://metacpan.org/source/JJNAPIORK/Catalyst-Runtime-5.90051/lib/Catalyst/Dispatcher.pm#L148
It either gets an action object, or it translates the path to an object for you.

I like the string option better. It's cleaner to read. But you should be fine
with both.
