WebDyne::Handler

NAME

WebDyne::Handler - WebDyne handler module, forces use non-chained WebDyne handler.

SYNOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

#  Basic usage in a simple file in a directory which forces WebDyne::Chain usage
#
<start_html>
Server local time is: <? localtime ?>
__PERL__
use WebDyne::Handler;

DESCRIPTION

WebDyne::Handler module forces plain (non-chained) processing of a page. This can be useful in an environment where WebDyne::Chain has been configured to process all pages in a directory via alternate configuration options (e.g. Dir_config or other settings).

Using this module will ensure there is no pre or post processing of results by any WebDyne::Chain modules.

use WebDyne::Handler; is intended to be called from within a WebDyne page __PERL__ block. The import routine updates the current page instance so that subsequent handling uses the nominated handler class directly.

WARNING

If you use WebDyne::Chain to load an authentication or session tracking module they will not be run on any pages that use this module, which may result in inadvertently allowing unauthenticated access to pages.

USAGE

WebDyne::Handler is used as per the synopsis.

You can also nominate a specific handler class explicitly:

__PERL__
use WebDyne::Handler handler => 'WebDyne';

or with the single-argument shorthand:

__PERL__
use WebDyne::Handler 'WebDyne';

METHODS

WebDyne::Handler does not expose any public methods.

OPTIONS

WebDyne::Handler accepts an optional handler class name at import time. The following forms are supported:

  • use WebDyne::Handler;

    Reset the page to the plain WebDyne handler flow.

  • use WebDyne::Handler 'Some::Handler';

    Use the nominated handler class.

  • use WebDyne::Handler handler => 'Some::Handler';

    Named form of the same option.
