[Catalyst] Annoyance with Static::Simple and Log4Perl on Catalyst 5.9

2011-11-03 Thread Kieren Diment
I came across this bug after a recent upgrade to Catalyst 5.9. Static content served by Static::Simple is logged in apps which use Log4Perl for logging. There was a suggestion that using $c->log->_flush would prevent this (which leaves the question of how to detect a development environment to

Catalyst sure is wide and deep. One can get a reasonably advanced app running in Catalyst without knowing broad stretches of what goes on, or *can* go on, under the hood. There's so much possible, and so many handy methods and plugins that you're gonna A) overlook things on the mad dash to the goal

Good afternoon, I'm building a large e-commerce site, and it is very important that what I write can: - Handle large server loads - Deliver pages quickly - Make transactions quickly as well as have a small development time (i.e. pre-built modules for e-commerce are available, and are extendible).
