Subject: Cannot specify a config file with Helios::Config
Helios::Config in 2.50_2860 and above does not work if you do not have the HELIOS_INI environment variable set and instead try to specify an configuration file in a program. For example: use Data::Dumper; use Helios::Config; Helios::Config->init(CONF_FILE => '/etc/helios/helios.ini'); my $conf = Helios::Config->parseConfig(); print Dumper($conf),"\n"; should at least dump a hashref of the [global] params in /etc/helios/helios.ini to the terminal, but it dies with: No conf file specified at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Helios/Config.pm line 192. though obviously a conf file *was* specified. Interestingly, explicitly setting the conf file *without calling init()* actually works: use Data::Dumper; use Helios::Config; Helios::Config->setConfFile('/etc/helios/helios.ini'); my $conf = Helios::Config->parseConfig(); print Dumper($conf),"\n"; So the problem is with the init() method.
Fixed in the latest 2.50 version.
