RE: [cgiapp] [OT] Config::Context && Windows

["Dan Horne" <suppressed>]

I use CGI::Application::Plugin::Config::Context under Windows . Basically I
ignored the test failures (naughty I know) ... I'm a bit hazy about the
failures now, but I think that they had to do with trying to use
UNIX-specific caching of the configuration in order to speed things up.
Perhaps the install could check the environment and then only run the
caching tests if required.

It also means that you'll need to turn caching off in your code, as
caching's on by default:

    $self->conf->init(
        -ConfigFile       => $self->param('config_file'),
        -CacheConfigFiles => 0,
    );

Anyway, I haven't encountered any problems with this module and windows to
date, and it's made maintaining multiple sites a breeze
