Thanks for your suggestion, Tony, =).
In your example, is HelpUtils a .pm file?
And if so, where in the Catalyst folder structure would it be placed?
Would I need to create a folder called Role?

Put a subroutine in a separate place, where it can be accessed / called, by
whatever controllers need to use it?

Why not put all your subroutines in a Role and consume the role in your main
application class.
Package Role::HelpUtils;
use Moose::Role;
sub redirect_to_action {
my ($c, $controller, $action, @params) =@_;
$c->response->redirect($c->uri_for($c->controller($controller)->action_for($action),
@params));
$c->detach;
}
1;
In your main app class, simply use the role
package MyApp;
use Moose;
use Catalyst::Runtime ;
with 'Role::HelpUtils';
You can then access the subroutines using e.g $c->redirect_to_action()

Okay, no worries, I've done it now.
Created a folder called CommonUse to exist alongside Controller, View, and
Model folders, and hold perl modules that are commonly used, =).
Create a file in the folder.
Put my subroutine in the file.
Then in the controller I want to find the subroutine, where it normally
says:
BEGIN { extends 'Catalyst::Controller' }
...I switch it to say:
BEGIN { extends 'MyApp::CommonUse::File' }
....where MyApp is the name of my app, and File is the name of the perl
module file I created in the CommonUse folder.
Then that controller can call the subroutine, and everything seems to work,
=).
I read online, you could also put subrountines inside of Myapp.pm within the
lib folder, and all controllers could access it. I did try that, however, I
couldn't get it working, so any pointers on that appreciated.
Yours,
Andrew.

Is there a keep it simple stupid answer to the following question:
Put a subroutine in a separate place, where it can be accessed / called, by
whatever controllers need to use it?
