Yes, it IS a lot of work. You don't need to slavishly copy what Richard has done, but it will give you some clues as to what CAN be done. I am not sure if it made it into the released framework, But Richard did a PM's talk here in Toronto a couple of years ago and the system upon which the framework is based had two totally separate CGI::App's sharing a common infrastructure - one app for the outside world, and a secure one (as I recall it) for the company to use internally. Very slick!jdtoronto | [reply] |
