[Catalyst] Anybody using Chained('.') ?

[Jason Kohles]

I'm trying to use Chained('.') to create a controller base class that  
binds to the namespace of whatever controller class inherits it, but  
despite the documentation specifically mentioning this use, I can't  
seem to get it to work.

I minimized the problem down to this simplest of examples...

% catalyst.pl Test
% cd Test
% cat <<END > lib/Test/Controller/Foo.pm
package Test::Controller::Foo;
use strict;
use warnings;
use base 'Catalyst::Controller';

# This doesn't work
sub base : Chained('.') PathPart('') CaptureArgs(0) { }
sub arghhh : Chained('base') PathPart('') Args(0) { }

# This doesn't work either
sub foo : Chained('.') PathPart('foo') Args(1) { }

1;
END
% script/test_server.pl


When it starts up, I get this...

[debug] Loaded Private actions:
.----------------------+-------------------------------------- 
+--------------.
| Private              | Class                                |  
Method       |

| /end                 | Test::Controller::Root               |  
end          |
| /foo/base            | Test::Controller::Foo                |  
base         |
| /foo/arghhh          | Test::Controller::Foo                |  
arghhh       |
| /foo/foo             | Test::Controller::Foo                |  
foo          |
'----------------------+--------------------------------------

[debug] Loaded Chained actions:
.------------------------------------- 
+--------------------------------------.
| Path Spec                           |  
Private                              |
+------------------------------------- 
+--------------------------------------+
'------------------------------------- 
+--------------------------------------'


And I don't seem to be able to get any chained actions working unless  
they are chained to a specific path...
