Hello. Since I'm new both to CGI::Application and OO Perl it's not easy to explain what I'd like to do.
For Example if I'd like to create a WebApp that manages User accounts on different Unix Systems. There are run-modes that will be the same for every Unix, others (sth. like "add_user" ) that are slightly different, and others that are totally different or even additional because on a special host in addition to create the user I want to put him into /etc/aliases and set quotas and whatever. As start-screen I would like to have a menue where you can choose first the platform and then the host. I read the perldoc for CGI::Application as well the O'Reilly Article on www.perl.com. Somehow you CAN do such a thing in an easy way, but I'm not really sure exactly how to structure it. Must have sth to do with the use of cgiapp_init() and the possibility of calling run_modes() more than once. OK, Building a "ordinary" WebApp using CGI::Application was no problem for me, i.e. one instance script and one application module with severeal run-modes in it. But this is a bit different. How exactly to inherit from a Superclass-WebApp? Why does one use "use base 'CGI::Application';" and not @ISA qw( CGI::Application ) , btw? And what about a mechanism to decide what Class exactly to instanciate at runtime? Different instance-Scripts? Hmm...I hope somebody understands my question(s).
