private[http] def toList = rules How does this mutate state? Its just returning the list isn't it (as its def not val/var)? It appears to me that the prepend and append methods mutate the state of the internal "rules" var... or am i missing the point? [ quite possible - I usually do ;-) ] > Why do you need the resulting List? Im creating something specialized for my environment and I just want to then do processing on the supplied list, in exactly the same way that all the other List[ThePF] style functions do in net.liftweb.http. For example: // LiftSession.scala val role = NamedPF.applyBox(req.path, LiftRules.httpAuthProtectedResource.toList) I more want RuleSeq to create the nice looking DSL, as i'll hook into lifts processing pipeline using LiftSession.onBeginServicing or something similar... > If you're using RuleSeq in your code, why not just copy the class over to > your code and morph it how you want? Sure, I could do this, but it seems a little pointless as I dont want to change any functionality, I purley want to be able to use RulesSeq outside of the http package - my understanding of scala scoping is that private[http] means that method is usable for members of that package, as opposed to being just available in that object/class like normal java scoping. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Lift" group.
