[Catalyst] Quesion about Chaining usage

[John Napiorkowski]

Matt,

I created a test case and a test for the issue I am
having.  I tried to match the way this was done in the
Catalyst test directory but I have to be honest and
say I am still a learner when it comes to this so I
probably need some pointers to get it to a place where
it can be properly integrated.

For example, should I just make this a patch to the
"live_component_controller_action_chained.t" file and
add my test controller to the
"/t/lib/TestApp/Controller/Action/Chained/" directory?

What I did was just create a tarball of the catalyst
application folder but I just put my test and test
controller in it.  I can run it from my box without
any trouble if you just cd to the 't' directory
because I use lib '../lib' to load stuff up.

Basically it fails test number 7 and you can see in
the output that it chains in a way that I would not
expect based on the way I think I understand chaining.

Take a look and let me know what I need to do to clean
this up and if this is really an issue with chaining
and not just some ignorance on my part.

Thanks!
