Hi,

This may not help you at all but I don't think you if
all you want is the URI for a given action that this
is the method to use.  Typically I use the $c->uri_for
and controller->action_for methods.  This works pretty
well for me.

my $uri =
$c->uri_for($c->controller(xxx)->action_for('action
private name');

If you just need the uri for an action in the current
controller and action you can make it even shorter:

my $uri = $c->uri_for($c->action);

or for a different action in the same controller:

my $uri =
$c->uri_for($c->controller->action_for('action name');

I think there are even easier ways to do this, might
want to search the archives.

Can you give me a few more details about your use case
and setup and then maybe I can understand what the
best way to solve your problem is.
