in thread basic CGI::Prototype::Hidden

I still don't get how the code in My::App is called. I mean the activate method dispaches to My::App::welcome - how the control goes back? How can I use My::App methods in My::App::welcome? One answer I see is that My::App::welcome should be derived from My::App instead of CGI::Prototype. Would it not be simpler if the activate function was a Class method so that the My::App object would be completly optional?

    Well, in the world of Class::Prototyped, classes and instances are one, so your comment is a bit confusing to me.

    My::App::welcome ISA My::App ISA CGI::Prototype::Hidden ISA CGI::Prototype ISA Class::Prototyped.

    Activate gets called against My::App.

    Does that help?

      I've read your article about Class::Prototype, but I did not know where it fits. I'll think about it. Thanks again.
