Has anybody written a Filter that passes lines of I/O through URI::Escape? Currently, I'm doing it manually on each call i.e. $wheel->put( uri_escape($buffer) ); or $buffer = uri_unescape($buffer);, but it'd be sweet if there was a POE::Filter that wrapped it all up. I've looked at writing one, but I'm under a tight schedule right now. If there is enough interest and nobody else wants to write it, I'll hack at it in a couple/few weeks.
The main drive for this is that I'm using POE::Filter::Line to pass data between a controller and a slave on different hosts and I want to encapsulate arbitrary data into a single line or "packet" and not have to do any special delimitation. URI::Escape takes care of most cases for me (mostly newlines and whitespace). Anyways, I've got most of the ugliness wrapped up in nice events so the URI:: stuff isn't exposed all over the place, but I think it'd be an appropriate Filter. Any thoughts, ideas? -Al Tobey Unix Administrator Jack-Of-All-Trades, Master at Some. ******************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
