framework for modperl applications
I found that Catalyst is too huge to use. Other than Catalyst, do you have any other framework suggested for MP applications? thanks. --penny

MasonX::WebApp allows (but does not force) me, to put my logic in .pm files and keep my mason components free from business logic , yet not entirely free from perl code, This is why I like it, I can still do small and simple things in my components and put my important stuff in .pm files. Noting to mention about DBIx::Class, either you like OR-Wrappers or not, but I would recommend it strongly. Session mgmt comes with MasonX::WebApp Internationalisation is done with Locale::Maketext, Logging with Log4perl, that's it. Switched from apache1 to apache2 recently with not too much trouble and I'm quite happy with this! For performance issues I'm running a lightweight frontend apche and a mod_perl-apache as reverse proxy for the backend (as described in mod_perl book). Rolf Schaufelberger www.mypxler.com

I'm not sure it qualifies as a framework though, maybe just a request framework. It has been measured as almost as fast as straight response handlers (assuming that hasn't changed from 0.09 to 0.10).

My understanding is that Catalyst is as light as you want it to be. What is 'heavy' about it?

Re: framework for modperl applications
Most will argue that it's not considered a framework per se, but I like HTML::Template. It's more of a templating engine really. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I found that Catalyst is too huge to use. Other than Catalyst, do you have any other framework suggested for MP applications? thanks. --penny

Other than Catalyst, do you have any other framework suggested for MP applications? I prefer CGI::Application. Just ignore the name, it works just peachy under mod_perl. It's a very simple framework by itself and has lots of plugins to give you things like sessions, configuration, form validation, etc. -- Michael Peters Plus Three, LP
Re: framework for modperl applications
I like Mason a lot (HTML::Mason). We use Mason mostly for it's component execution chain, attributes, subexec, and a few other features. Also, we don't use Mason's template features at all, we choose to use HTML::Template for that.
