I'm looking into this. You're wrong about Config::Any trying to load
files with every backend, though. Config::Any *can* do that, but
C::P::ConfigLoader doesn't use that:
sub setup {
my $c = shift;
my @files = $c->find_files;
my $cfg = Config::Any->load_files( {
files => [EMAIL PROTECTED],
filter => \&_fix_syntax,
use_ext => 1
} );
that use_ext => 1 means "use the file extension to determine which
plugins to offer it to", so we can be fairly sure *providing that the
user is correctly naming their config files* that anything we offer to a
plugin ought to be the correct format.
On the one hand, users creating broken YAML (or whatever) files is out
of our scope. On the other, we mustn't make it any more difficult for
them to see the errors reported on their files than it would be if they
used YAML.pm directly.
I think the difficulty here is that Config::Any::_load has the potential
if running without use_ext=>1 to generate a lot of spurious warnings
caused by all the plugins to which a given config file is offered, but
which can't parse the file. So any patch would presumably only report
warnings if use_ext=>1. But that still doesn't seem ideal. Suggestions?

What is C::P::Math::BigInt? Did you do: use Catalyst qw(.. Math::BigInt); instead of: use Catalyst qw(...); use Math::BigInt; ? Or am I missing something?

You will need the correct locales compiled on your system for every language and input method you want to support - IIRC these can take up quite some disk space so there is a concommitant cost associated with handling the different languages, but I don't recall it being enormous. To be honest the one-off cost of compiling the locales is the only real downside of this approach that I can see. /joel ___ List: Catalyst@lists.rawmode.org Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.rawmode.org/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/

Isn't there any way you could require the input to be associated with a particular language? Perl supports locale definitions which modify, for example, the set of 'word' characters matched by the \w regular expression escape. If you could dynamically switch locales to the correct one for your input text then you could trivially s/\W//g to sanitize strings. If you really have to accept input in any language without knowing what language it is, then perhaps you should take the opposite approach and test for the presence of certain characters which you can be sure would occur in program code but not typically in text. Of course, English might suffer without the dollar-sign and semicolon, and you may decide that this is overly restrictive on your users... /joel ___ List: Catalyst@lists.rawmode.org Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.rawmode.org/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/

Well, you could use gcc, or use Strawberry Perl, or bug ActiveState to ppm'ify a lot more CPAN modules. I'm guessing there's no PPM of Config::Any either -- did that install OK from CPAN? You could try Cygwin, too. My experience is that ActiveState Perl is best avoided, but I haven't used Windows in quite a while, so maybe that's changed. /joel ___ List: Catalyst@lists.rawmode.org Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.rawmode.org/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/

Well, to put it bluntly, it doesn't work because you just made that interface up. If you read the ConfigLoader synopsis at: http://search.cpan.org/~bricas/Catalyst-Plugin-ConfigLoader-0.12/lib/Catalyst/Plugin/ConfigLoader.pm#SYNOPSIS you'll see that the interface expects file => filename, ie a scalar NOT an arrayref. However, I've initiated a discussion on the catalyst-dev list about whether this is a reasonable change to make to the interface, ie for it to accept either a scalar or an arrayref of scalars. If the dev team like the idea I'll make up a patch to ConfigLoader. I'd point out at this point that anything you can do with multiple config files, you could do with a single one -- what is your rationale for needing multiple ones? Do you store each class's configuration separately? I can sort of see the logic in doing that. Please mail the list back and explain what you're doing with the multiple files, so we can understand the use case better and see if there's a better way to do what you need. At the very least it'll help me to make up a patch to get the behaviour you want. In summary, then: 1) the interface doesn't work like you think it does...for now anyway 2) you can get around it by rolling your multiple files into a single one 3) just making up an interface doesn't magically cause it to exist /joel ___ List: Catalyst@lists.rawmode.org Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.rawmode.org/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/

Perl doesn't know at compile-time which plugins you're going to load. That's why require is necessary.

Depends how strictly we interpret your question. If you can handle having a runtime DLL, you should be able to install gcc and binutils without needing a full Cygwin/UWIN/MinGW32 environment. If you want something fully native, you'll still not have anything providing (most of) the POSIX function set just using MS' libraries, AFAIK. http://www.mingw.org/x86-win32-ports.shtml Your best bet will be to install something from that list, I guess.

(look at his name) Quite possibly. I hope my email wasn't rude. I was trying to emphasise "sounds" rude, not "is definitely" rude. I asked for more information, politely, in order to help the guy, and then tried to let him know that his request could be construed as a rude one.
