I decided to live by committee regarding the syntax for internal vs.
external parameters. The vote was overwhelmingly in favor of an
args=>{} parameter rather than special syntax to set pass-through
arguments apart from others. This commit makes that change, closing
ticket:12.

Heavily revise the documentation, but it is not proofread.

Rewrite Stage.pm's documentation.

Fix the comments. The leaks mentioned have been fixed.

Updated POE::Stage::Resolver to actually do something with
Net::DNS::Resolver. Also modernized its interface to self-request
from init(). Updated log-resolver.perl to reflect the new usage, and
added some addresses to resolve against the Internet.
2005-07-15 07:21:35 (r47) by rcaputo
examples/self-requesting-stage.perl A
Add a test case for self-requesting stages. It was important to make
sure they didn't leak. In fact, they did leak, but this test case
illustrates rules to work around that. Later on those rules should be
subsumed into POE::Stage. Also, it should be possible to create a
POE::Stage::AutoRequest or something that assimilates the
self-request pattern.
2005-07-15 07:20:09 (r46) by rcaputo
lib/POE/Stage.pm M; lib/POE/Request.pm M
Enable stage init() functions to fire off requests on behalf of the
stages creating new stages. This is used in the upcoming
POE::Stage::Resolver to greatly simplify its public interface.
2005-07-15 02:58:10 (r45) by rcaputo; lab/local-scoped-state.perl A
Test whether local() affects exported variables. The answer seems to
be no, it doesn't. Maybe wrapping the local() in the proper package
will work?
2005-07-14 04:10:32 (r44) by rcaputo; PATTERNS M
Discuss stage use patterns in more (or at least fresher) detail.
Recommend that stages be use-pattern agnostic if at all possible. It
remains to be seen whether they can achieve this in practice. I
really hope so.
2005-07-14 03:58:29 (r43) by rcaputo; TODO M

This commit perpetrates a most vile act against POE::Stage as a
project in order to provide per-Stage contexts for each request.
Prior to this change, a request object acted like shared memory
between its creator and its target. Now each end of the transaction
has its own per-transaction data space. POE::Stage's first test
program finally cleanly passes.

Test the contexts and special "req" and "rsp" data members for

should have done it HOURS ago!

The array deletes were resetting data members to undef, which is
against protocol in this application. The values should be 0 to avoid
undefined-value warnings yet retain falsity. This replaces delete()
with splice().

Replace the internal hash reference implementation of most objects
(except the stages) with list references. It's faster, but more
importantly it's immune to typos and easier to read: $self->[REQ_FOO]
is obviously a request member access. $self->{foo} is therefore a
stage member access.
In the Stage classes, replace _req and _rsp with req and rsp. Also
replace the _foo members with req_foo. rsp_foo will be added shortly.

A round of refactoring. POE::Request::{Emit,Return} have been
abstracted into a base class, POE::Request::Upward and some small
tweaks. POE::Request's _recall() method was moved to
POE::Request::Emit's recall() method since that's the only place it's
used. Saves a pointless method call. Cleaned up POE::Watcher::Delay

Initial import. This is a complete if simple working prototype of an

interact.
