Changes for version 1.33_6

  • Patches from Alejandro Imass
  • Changed @FIELDS to @PROPS in Action.pm and InputField.pm for mk_accesors as FIELDS was very confusing with regard to action input fields.
  • Formalized Workflow::Acction::new() as a public method with corresponding pod example.
  • Optional class property for Workflow::Action::InputField. Previously, public method new() made little sense if InputField always instantiates from Workflow::Action::InputField. Now fields can derive from custom class.
  • Updated pod to reflect the new formal abillity to add extra properties for actions and input fields.
  • With the ability to derive custom properties for classes and fields there is little need IMHO to define InputField "type" any further but leave it implementation dependent. The rationale is that validators intrinsically define this. Updating pod accordingly.
