RE: [Catalyst] Multiple inheritance of controllers

2008-06-13 Thread Byron Young
I ran into the same problem. But I found that adding this to my controllers that inherit from multiple controller base classes works as a work around: use Class::C3; sub create_action { my $self = shift; return $self->maybe::next::method(@_); } It's an annoying workaround, but I didn'
