Re: Web Module (Was: Perl6 new features)

Getting back to the Web Module,
the following could help a lot
if there were in the core or as a 'core' downloadable bundle :

- DBI
- ORM system
- Caching system
- Sessions (server side cookies)
- XML parser
- JSON parser

I guess that it will be fair enough for actual web apps.

templating system that could be hooked or using flex points,
classes related to CRUD,scaffolding,input filtering, unit testing could
be a plus
but could sound more like a framework than a programming language^^;

I've certainly forgotten many things but that's what came up at the moment.

===Per class documentation, not per file documentation

Related to the one above, I'd like to have NAME, SYNOPSIS, etc. for
each class, not just per file. Well, what I really want is the
Smalltalk class and method browsers, but I know I'm not going to get
those.


I'm sure it's going to be great deal easier to implement such a tool
in Perl 6 than it is in Perl 5 though. It's just not going to be in
the core. And even if it's not going to be easy, I can think of at
least one person who is going to have a bloody good go at implementing
it.

With apologies if I'm teaching my grandma to suck eggs here.
