DESCRIPTION

A Catalyst extension to replace the development server with Starman.

This module replaces the functionality of Catalyst::Engine::HTTP::Prefork, which is now deprecated.

It provides access to the prefork engine specific options which were previously added by hacking your server script.

Adding this to your application

Just add a server script module to your application which inherits from this package.

Catalyst::ScriptRunner will automatically detect and use it when script/myapp_server.pl is started.

For example:
