Hi Jonathan, Thanks!
By setting .. @ISA = qw(HTML::Mason::Request::ApacheHandler) .. everything (so far as tested) works as expected. It seems that the "alter_superclass" logic may not be working as I'd based my code on a combination of the documentation and a CPAN module "MasonX::Request::WithApacheSession". This module includes the line (which I had used): @ISA = qw(HTML::Mason::Request); Ideally "alter_superclass" should have changed this, however I don't know why it didn't. Many thanks for the pointers, -greg On Jul 22, 2011, at 6:40 AM, Jonathan Swartz wrote: > Sorry, I don't know.
