[Catalyst] Help understanding interaction with view; application using IE7 Prototype.js
Dear List,
I wondered whether anyone could shed some light on what happens during the
flow of a request, there seems to be a difference in returning directly from
the controller and forwarding to a view. This effect is show when using
Ajax.
This issue only appears in IE7, Firefox handles the response from the
request fine.
The situation is a s follows;
I have two javascript Updater methods in a page;
html
head
script src=/javascript/scriptaculous-js-1.8.0/lib/prototype.js
type=text/javascript/script
script src=/javascript/scriptaculous-js-1.8.0 /src/scriptaculous.js
type=text/javascript/script
/head
body
a onclick= if ( Ajax.getTransport() ){ new
Ajax.Updater('securityInfo','/updater/timeMason',
{ evalScripts: true }); return false; } href=#testanchorMethod A/a
a onclick= if ( Ajax.getTransport() ){ new
Ajax.Updater('securityInfo','/updater/time',
{ evalScripts: true }); return false; } href=#testanchorMethod B/a
One of the ajax requests (Method A) calls a catalyst method that forwards to
a Mason view the other request (Method B) calls a catalyst method that
returns from the controller using: $c-response-body
the controllers;
Method A
sub timeMason : Local {
my ($self, $c) = @_;
$c-stash-{template} = 'updaterPages/timeMason.mhtml';
$c-forward( $c-view('Mason') ) unless $c-response-body;
}
Method B
sub time : Local {
my ($self, $c) = @_;
$c-response-body(Updater ran @ .localtime);
}
The mason page root/updaterPages/timeMason.mhtml contains :
% Updater ran @ .localtime %
In IE7 when you run the controllers directly ie http://host/updater/time and
http://host/updater/timeMason the correct output is displayed, they both
work.
The problem is that in IE7, when run from the Javascript Updater, only
method B works the javascript fails when attempting to get the responseText
from the transport (in prototype.js line: this.responseText =
String.interpret(transport.responseText ). The examples I have seen using
AJAX with catalyst all seem to have the controller setting the response body
(method B). Is it possible to use method A?
Thanks in advance
Stephen

[Catalyst] Problem with Catalyst::Plugin::I18N using UTF-8
There are some problems when translating with Catalyst::Plugin::I18N using
special unicode characters like æøå.
It got printed (both in console/debugging) and in web browser) as unprintable
characters (displayed as ?). Manually changing encoding in Firefox to
ISO-8859-1 made it look right, but the rest of the page is using UTF-8, so
this was a no-go solution for me.
The solution I found to this was to change line 65 of Catalyst/Plugin/I18N.pm
(version 0.06), changed the Decode attribute given
to Locale::Maketext::Simple from 1 to 0.
Any particular reason why Decode was 1?
If Decode=1 is needed for somebody, this should definitely be a configurable
option.
Patch attached

Just for giggles this morning, I started tinkering with a
Catalyst::Plugin::PluginLoader.
Can anyone in core tell me why things are in this particular order?
setup {
$class-setup_plugins
$class-log-debug( Loaded plugins:\n . $t-draw . \n );
...
# Call plugins setup
{
no warnings qw/redefine/;
local *setup = sub { };
$class-setup;
}
}
Since PluginLoader-setup is called after the Debug loaded plugins
output...it doesn't show the plugins just loaded by PluginLoader.
Is there some reason these are backwords on purpose, or is that just a
bug? It appears that other things are ok
Can't see a reason really, except maybe what if we die loading a plugin, but
then you'll get an error anyway.
Unless somebody else objects I'd say patch it.

[Catalyst] More unicode problems (uri_for)
The solution to my last problem (attached) brought up a new problem regarding
UTF-8.
= Problem =
The following code:
$c-redirect(
$c::uri_for(
'/login',
{error_msg = Check my å}
);
);
Gives me this URL in my browser:
http://localhost:3000/login?error_msg=Check+my+%C3%83%C2%A5
Which prints this on my webpage:
Check my å
The content type of the webpage is UTF-8.
= Possible solution =
Remove line 967 from Catalyst.pm (v5.7011):
(map {
$_ = $_;
# THIS ONE utf8::encode( $_ );
# using the URI::Escape pattern here so utf8 chars survive
s/([^A-Za-z0-9\-_.!~*'() ])/$URI::Escape::escapes{$1}/go;
s/ /+/g;
${key}=$_; } ( ref $val eq 'ARRAY' ? @$val : $val ));
= Questions =
- It works as a solution to me, does it break anything for others?
- Why is that line there at all?
- Shouldn't URI::Escape be enough?

Re: [Catalyst] Problem with Catalyst::Plugin::I18N using UTF-8
I looked at the Unicode plugin and I believe it most likely will
break the
integration against our LDAP backend, for example when searching for
names
containing characters like æøå. (OpenLDAP requires its input as
UTF-8.)
In addition, this is bad if your code (or templates) contains
special unicode
characters; which then becomes double-encoded.
The Unicode plugin looks like could be useful if you are migrating
old data or
an old website that didn't use UTF-8 before. It is definitely not the
solution for me, as it means more data processing and might
introduce new
bugs.
As I said in my first post, the solution (which works for me) was to
turn off
the Decode parameter. This makes more sense to me now, since my mo/
po-files
are already in UTF-8 and don't need to be converted.
Right, I think there is some confusion on your part as to what is the
proper way of handling unicode in perl.
(The basic problem is that perl's magic internal representation just
happens to look exactly like UTF-8 plus a magic flag. Longer
description below)
First off, you need to understand the difference between characters
and bytes/octets
æøå is a character string
\303\246\303\270\303\245 is a utf8 byte sequence != a string
\303\246\303\270\303\245 + UTF8 flag = æøå perl string
From perldoc perlunicode
... What the UTF8 flag means is
that the
sequence of octets in the representation of the scalar is
the
sequence of UTFâ8 encoded code points of the characters
of a
string. The UTF8 flag being off means that each octet
in this
representation encodes a single character with code point
0..255
within the string. Perl's Unicode model is not to use
UTF-8 until
it is absolutely necessary.
The problem lies in that you can have two strings of data that look
the same when you print them, lets take the example you gave of æøå.
If this data comes from a source that doesn't set the UTF8 flag, the
SV (scalar value - where perl internals store scalars) will have the
characters of
\303\246\303\270\303\245
However since non of these code points are above 255 (they cant be as
each character = one byte) perl thinks this isn't a utf8 string.
Devel::Peek is a good module for this:
DB3 x $foo = \303\246\303\270\303\245
0 'æøå'
DB4 Dump($foo)
SV = PV(0x918d08) at 0x926848
REFCNT = 1
FLAGS = (POK,pPOK)
PV = 0x5ace10 \303\246\303\270\303\245\0
CUR = 6
LEN = 8
It looks right, but wait - LEN = 8. Perl thinks its a string of 8
characters that our terminal just happens to print right.
Compare that with:
DB6 x $bar = \x{E6}\x{F8}\x{E5}
0 '???'
DB7 Dump($bar)
SV = PV(0x9398dc) at 0x9306b4
REFCNT = 1
FLAGS = (POK,pPOK)
PV = 0x5acbf0 \346\370\345\0
CUR = 3
LEN = 4
Still not quite what we want...
DB10 Dump($baz = Encode::decode(utf8, $foo))
SV = PVMG(0x974e20) at 0x974168
REFCNT = 1
FLAGS = (POK,pPOK,UTF8)
IV = 0
NV = 0
PV = 0x656d30 \303\246\303\270\303\245\0 [UTF8
\x{e6}\x{f8}\x{e5}]
CUR = 6
LEN = 8
MAGIC = 0x6575e0
MG_VIRTUAL = PL_vtbl_utf8
MG_TYPE = PERL_MAGIC_utf8(w)
MG_LEN = 3
Right, *now* $baz is a proper unicode string that perl knows is a
string of UTF8 *characters*
To relate this to your problem, you are getting some of your data
double encoded because the data (from the perl module you are using to
access your LDAP server) is returning a byte sequence that perl
doesn't know is supposed to be UTF8.
The answer is to do Encode::decode(utf8, $utf8_byte_sequence)
on all the data coming back from your LDAP server (or to find the
right option to make the module you are using do it).
Any of this make any sense?
PS. It seems that even Apple has problems with UTF8. In writing this
email I saved it in my drafts folder. When I came back to edit it
again, the non-ascii characters got fluffed up. Fun eh?

[Catalyst] Database connections leaking
Just for background, I have inherited a
Catalyst/TT/Postgresql/Apache2/mod_perl web application. The
programmer that was responsible for the design and initial coding left
our company and is unavailable for consults. I am very new to
Catalyst, fair level of experience in TT, Perl and postgresql. Very
little experience in Apache and none in mod_perl. I'm an old C and ASM
programmer, stumbling my way through the web-centric world -- and
actually liking it, until this problem! :-)
The program seems to be working fine while on the Catalyst test
server, and when on an Apache/mod_perl server when the postgres
database is on the same physical server. The database connections
don't start leaking until we attempt to use a separate (physical)
database server. We verified this using iptraf and seeing none of the
connections being re-used *or* closed.
The following two modules are present in the system:
---
package MyApp::Model::DBI;
use warnings;
use strict;
use base 'Catalyst::Model::DBI';
__PACKAGE__-config(
dsn = 'dbi:Pg:dbname=xyz',
user = 'xyz',
password = 'xyz',
options = {AutoCommit = 1, RaiseError=1}
);
---
---
package MyApp::Model::Default;
use warnings;
use strict;
use base qw(
Catalyst::Model::DBIC::Schema
);
__PACKAGE__-config(
schema_class = 'MyApp::Schema',
connect_info = [
'dbi:Pg:dbname=xyz',
'xyz',
'xyz',
],
);
---
My gut feeling is this may be part of the problem, but the Model::DBI
is needed for direct SQL queries (many weeks of work needed to convert
them to the Catalyst method) and the current authentication system,
while the Model::Default is needed for all the Model::* packages using
the Catalyst system. (A script utilizing DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader
keeps all of our Schema files matched to the database.)
The 'dsn' entry in the above files works fine for the web server and
database server on one machine. When we change it to:
'dbi:Pg:dbname=xyz;host=10.10.0.34'
to access a different server for the database, that's when the
connection leaking goes nuts -- the program still works fine until it
dies from lack of connections. I've been searching the web and not
finding many answers.
I've gone through about a year's worth of msgs on this mailing list
and didn't see anything that helped. If someone could point me to some
documents or threads or other source of info (or maybe a more
appropriate mailing list if I picked wrong!) that could shed light on
this for me, I'd be grateful. And my one, remaining, brain cell would
last me a while longer . . .
