HI Stefan,
i guess my post was not clear on a specific part, from the documentation, for instance, that link http://mojolicious.org/perldoc/Mojolicious/Guides/Routing#Special-stash-values , i see that stash values action and controller are used instantiating the controller class, however, when setting those values in the stash, it does not change the controller that is used, except if it is set within route placeholder. By checking code of Mojolicious/Routes.pm and Mojolicious/Routes/Match.pm , it seems that controller and action are not taken from the stash, they are only taken the match object, so from the route match itself and captures. That is the part where i am not sure to understand correctly, documentation says that action and controller are special value of the stash, and that When the dispatcher sees controller and action values in the stash it will always try to turn them into a class and method to dispatch to. However, setting controller and action in the stash before the dispatcher kicks in does not change the routing. From the code, values are not taken from the stash, there are taken from the route match, first from the captures of the route, and then from the to method, but they are not taken from the stash. Am i missing something?
