In any case, this certainly doesn't seem to mesh with the most current documentation I could find about changes to $m->clear_buffer. From the changelog for 1.29_01, 1.29_02, and 1.30, the statement is:


1.29_01  January 25, 2005
[ INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES ]
- ** The behaviors of $m->flush_buffer and $m->clear_buffer have been
simplified. $m->flush_buffer only acts on the top-level output buffer;
$m->clear_buffer clears all output buffers. Task id #554.


This doesn't seem to represent what is happening ... at least for component-with-content calls.

Yeah, I think we're definitely seeing a bug. Calling $m->clear_buffer is supposed to unconditionally wipe all output generated up to that point, _unless_ it's been flushed (in which case it's already gone from Mason).

1. Understand better how the output stack works to suggest a fix to the group so I can run my web app under Mason 1.32 -- my preferred solution :-)
2. Keep running Mason 1.28
3. Remove/rework all component-with-content calls in my web app to ensure nothing relies on a $m->clear_buffer call, and then use Mason 1.32 (probably what I'll do if I can't do #1).

4. Send a patch to fix the bug.
5. Stay with 1.28 until Jon or I fix it and make a new release.

#4 would be great, but #5 is probably viable too ;)
