[Catalyst] wrapping up my last couple of questions

[leonard.a.jaffe at jpmchase.com]

In the last couple of days, I've submitted a couple of questions to the 
list, and I thought I would post a wrap-up note before starting on my next 
round of urgent emails.

1)  DBIC::Schema::Loader on windows - fixes for my warnings and some build 
issues in Windows as noted on this list are percolating through CPAN as we 
speak.

2) Cat::Engine::HTTP "run" redefined warning - fixed check in to 
repository.

3) I asked for advice on rolling an authentication::credential.  Daniel 
Westermann-Clark gave me the answer.
I don't think I can release code, but my minimal credential plug-in 
started as a copy of  Credential::Password, and I deconstructed from 
there.

It makes sure that it received either a user name or a User object, and 
passes that to set_authenticated().  Very simple.  I get the username from 
a request header, and pass it to login() in my Root controller.

But I'm now getting some session errors relating to session, 
authentication and Apache.  Details in another posting, when time permits.

So,m aside form one show stopper, my Cat infrastructure is looking pretty 
good, and I'm feeling pretty chipper about it.

Thanks to everyone who's helped/advised me lately.

Len.
