I guess my expectation is that $r->dir_config('MyVar') and
$r->dir_config->get('MyVar') should inherit equally, which as far as I can
tell, they don't. PerlSetVar or PerlAddVar - it makes no difference.
if you change your test case to:
PerlSetVar MyVar foo
<Location /test/>
# PerlSetVar MyVar bar
SetHandler "perl-script"
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>
test/foo:
my $r = shift;
$r->send_http_header('text/plain');
print "1: " . $r->dir_config('MyVar');
print "\n2: " . $r->dir_config->get('MyVar');
% GET http://localhost/test/foo
1: foo
2:
I think you'll see it...
