in reply to Switching POE::Filters mid-stream

I'm relatively clueless when it comes to POE, though I'm trying to figure it out myself right now, but I have one question... why do you need to stack the Stream and XML filters. I have used the stacked filter mechanism before... in fact I'm using it now within a Component::Server::TCP.

Per the docs for Filter::Stream, it does nothing... absolutely nothing... so why not simply switch to Filter::XML?

If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, but please explain why...





My code doesn't have bugs, it just develops random features.
