I am not a big fan of HTML::Template. It just doesn't float my boat. It bugs me a little bit that it's a prereq of CGI::Application, especially when it isn't, then, really needed.
Is there a plan to convert HTML::Template from a prereq into a plugin? Up-sides: no non-core prereqs as of 5.8, all "tmpl" stuff can be removed from core, no bias toward one template engine, clearer errors (no method) if you choose not to implement tmpl methods. Down-sides: things that have CGI::Application as a prereq, and use HTML::Template, will need to be updated to require the correct plugin in order to work out of the box on new installs; more steps to use CGI::App 'out of the box' Maybe the cons outweight the pros. I just really would like to eliminate that prereq. Maybe it's just like a scab I keep picking at, though, and I should STFU. -- rjbs ##### CGI::Application community mailing list ################ ## ## ## To unsubscribe, or change your message delivery options, ## ## visit: http://www.erlbaum.net/mailman/listinfo/cgiapp ## ## ## ## Web archive: http://www.erlbaum.net/pipermail/cgiapp/ ## ## Wiki: http://cgiapp.erlbaum.net/ ## ## ## ################################################################
