  • Joel Berger commented on no indirect considered harmful

    True you have to be very careful when designing a tied interface, but one ought to be careful when designing an API as well.

    In fact Tie::Array::CSV does implement all the methods, because it inherits from the Tie::Array base class, I have overloaded those which I must or for which I have a better implementation than the default. These base classes make writing those "correct" implementations easier, whether you actually inherit from them, or just inspect their behavior.

    Heh, I've just seen this at the end of relative:

        "evitaler fo dnE" # "End of relative"
    
  • Joel Berger commented on using DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler

    I've been asked elsewhere to clarify my comment 'dependency radius for DBIC/DBICDH is already huge'. Gladly.

    Galileo is a project whose primary aim is ease of installation. Part of that is certainly DBIC/DBICDH as it lets the user deploy on whatever SQL server they have. That said, install time is something I take into consideration as well. Installation of the non-db dependencies of Galileo takes essentially no time, the db side takes quite a while. This isn't necessarily a problem, but it means that I'm careful to add even more dependencies like DBICM which pulls in even more depe…

    one correction: 'should I need **another** one'

  • grt@opendevnet commented on Bringing Perl5 to GitHub

    Hmm, I agree with these comments. It's possible to duplicate efforts ... even with forking and pulling :-) Proliferating organizational repos can confuse people (or at least people like me) who are used to the well-herded namespaces of CPAN!

    I think I am encouraged that Matt Trout thinks something like perlsourcemap is a good idea. Well, I am either encouraged or just less afraid :-)
