[MTOS-dev] Experimental Dispatcher

[Hirotaka Ogawa]

Hi,

I've tried CGI version only, and it worked well but I had to make a
little bit of modifications.

First, your modification to MT::App includes a problem, because "=="
is not a string-comparison operator (eq).

+    my %param = (ref($_[0]) == "HASH") ? %{$_[0]} : @_;

And, I uploaded several perl modules for CGI-Application-Dispatch to
'extlib' directory.  The attached zip file includes all files I need
to use CGI-Application-Dispatch with MT.

Also, I modified your mtd.cgi file as like:

   #!/usr/bin/perl -w
   use strict;
   use lib $ENV{MT_HOME} ? "$ENV{MT_HOME}/lib" : 'lib';
   use MT::Bootstrap;
   use MT::Dispatch;
   MT::Dispatch->dispatch();
