Hello Perrin,

I'm interested in how you defined your handler with the 'method' attribute:
sub handler : method {
...
I've read http://perldoc.perl.org/attributes.html about attributes, but 
it does not seem to suggest that tagging the method attribute to 
subroutine has any programming advantages, unless you're interested to 
list the subroutines with that attribute. But I suspect there's more to it.

Perhaps you can clue me in on this?

PerlHandler Package::Name

instead of:

PerlHandler Package::Name->handler

      
So on the first case,we need to write the handler as
sub handler { my $r = shift; ...}
because Apache may call the function directly as Package::Name::handler.

on the second case,we write handler as,
sub handler { my $class = shift; my $r = shift; ... }
because '->' is a method calling.
    

For method handlers, you also have to declare it differently.

In mod_perl 1:
sub handler ($$) {

In mod_perl 2:
sub handler : method {
