NAME

MasonX::Resolver::ExtendedCompRoot - Extend functionality of HTML::Mason::Resolver::File to allow specific comp_roots to be called

SYNOPSIS

Top

In your httpd.conf file:

  PerlSetVar   MasonResolverClass   MasonX::Resolver::ExtendedCompRoot

Or when creating an ApacheHandler object:

  my $ah =
      HTML::Mason::ApacheHandler->new
          ( 
           resolver_class => 'MasonX::Resolver::ExtendedCompRoot',
          );

Or when using Mason in standalone mode:

  my $resolver = MasonX::Resolver::ExtendedCompRoot->new( comp_root => '/var/www/mason' );

  my $info = $resolver->get_info('/some/comp.html');

DESCRIPTION

Top

This subclass of HTML::Mason::Resolver::File, the basic default Mason resolver, enables calls to specific component roots to be made, eg.

  <& comp_root_name=>path/to/comp &>

It is dependent on MasonX::Request::ExtendedCompRoot - otherwise its behaviour is identical to that of HTML::Mason::Resolver::File.

USAGE

Top

To use this module you need to tell Mason to use this class for its resolver and MasonX::Request::ExtendedCompRoot for requests. This can be done in two ways. If you are configuring Mason via your httpd.conf file, simply add this:

  PerlSetVar  MasonRequestClass    MasonX::Request::ExtendedCompRoot
  PerlSetVar  MasonResolverClass   MasonX::Resolver::ExtendedCompRoot

If you are using a handler.pl file, simply add this parameter to the parameters given to the ApacheHandler constructor:

  request_class  => 'MasonX::Request::ExtendedCompRoot'
  resolver_class => 'MasonX::Resolver::ExtendedCompRoot'
