Yeah, Catalyst looks very interesting - the only thing is its
documentation is usually either stale or lacking - IMO.
The deal here is that I've written some functions into these Mason
components that I don't want to have to write over. Its not just things
to write html pages but a bunch of stuff that post to other site via
LWP, interfacing with Payflow Pro and Authorize.net that I'm not keen on
rewriting - well with the least rewriting possible. For instance if had
a component call like:
<& 'some/comp.mas', foo => $foo, bar => "baz", %ARGS %>
What would I change it to, but more importantly in 'some/comp.mas':
<%args>
$foo
$bar
</%args>
...some code...
if ($ARGS{'who'} eq "you") {
...
}
...
I often read that most Mason gurus just use Mason for the view and do
all the functions etc in Perl modules, maybe one of you could show me
and example of how you would handle it.
