[OT] Re: [Catalyst] ANNOUNCE: Catalyst::Devel 1.07 andCatalyst::Manual5.7012 released to CPAN
YAML is hard to understand for a blind developer because if he
arrows up or down the text, he hears the current line spoken,
but he doesn't know how many spaces is that line indented. YAML
is useful only visually, but not all the programmers can see,
so from this point of view, other configuration modules are
better.

It is also possible to hear the number of spaces when using a voice
synthesizer, but it is not very friendly to use a language like
Python. The languages like perl, Java or C# that use blocks
enclosed between { and } are much more friendly.
YAML, the format, supports "flow" style collections which
use {} and [], as JSON does.

I don't think Perl's YAML modules support emitting in this style yet,
although you may be able to hand-write YAML this way.

This is using FormBuilder?
I have not used FormBuilder in a while but wouldn't you want something
like:
$form->field->{foo};
or
$form->field('foo');
$c->req->parameters->{foo} is the raw posted data. I would assume it could
be different if the form validation process modified the input data.
For example, in Form::Processor, a date input might be one or more elements
of $c->req->parameters, but you would access it as
$form->field('some_date')->value;
( or shorthand $form->value( 'some_date' ) )
and that would return a DateTime object.

Yes, using FormBuilder.
I originally was using $form->field('foo'). I just tried
$form->field->{foo}. They both return "".
I'm not sure why it's not working as it should.
Thanks,
Chris

The problem is that if another person uses yaml, he probably won't use that
style, so if a blind programmer would need to read it later, it would be hard
to understand it.
If Catalyst recommends another type of configuration file, that new type has
more chances to be used more and more in the new apps.

[Catalyst] Session Wipeout
Our catalyst app is having a problem with sessions. We have a calendar that is called via ajax and sometimes takes 45 seconds to load (optimizing this is in the works). The problem is if you navigate away from that page and start clicking around, the session is being updated just fine until that ajax call finishes. Then the session is over-written and all the previous session data is wiped out. Is there a way I can have that ajax call not write the session data? I'm using: Session Session::State::Cookie Session::State::URI Session::Store::DBIC Thanks in advance!

[Catalyst] Frequent crashes with DBI using test server?
Forgive me if this is a newbie question. I have a suspicion I'm missing something obvious, but I can't find the answer with a google search. I'm developing my first Catalyst application, and it's going fairly well. For now, I'm using the test server (ie, scripts/ myapp_server.pl), which is great for where I'm at now. The problem is: I'm connecting to a local MySQL database in my model over a socket. Frequently but intermittently, this seems to get corrupted. I get messages like: DBIx::Class::ResultSet::next(): DBI Connection failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket 'ple::Cookie' (2) at ... (Refresh changes the nonsense after the word socket, the 'ple::Cookie' in this case.) If I restart the server, and hit refresh, it works fine. Sometimes I can get a dozen or so requests through, sometimes only one or two. I've got an abstraction layer in front of my model - not using DBIx::Class directly as the model, but it does use a perl library that ultimately does use DBIx::Class. I don't see these kinds of problems from my unit tests directly against the libraries that the model uses. Is this a known issue with the standalone server? Or am I not doing something I ought with the database layer?
