[OSCon 2005] rfc Inherited Method Handlers for mod_perl

[prev] [thread] [next] [Date index for 2005/02/06]

I'm planning on submitting the following talk proposal for a 45 minute
presentation session:

Inherited method handlers for mod_perl

1. What is an inherited handler and its benefits (5min)
	a) Single handler for all packages.
	b) Speeds code development.
	c) Removes repeated code.

2. A simple example (10min)
	a) How to inherit a handler into multiple packages.

3. Treating handlers completely like objects, a complex example. (10min)
	a) A single generalized handler.
	b) Overriding configuration methods.
	c) Putting it all together.
	
4. Multiply inherited handlers (10min)
	a) Customizing the handler for a specific application.

5. Who is doing this now. (5min)
	a) Projects that implement this idea

* All examples will utilize mod_perl 2.0, though this idea can be used
identically in mod_perl 1.x

The only uncertainty I have right now is on on the last section of the
talk. I don't know of any project currently using this method, though I
have not looked too far. If you know of a project that does use an
approach please let me know.
