The change doesn't require the "random refactoring" I feared.
Assuming others think this is a reasonable idea, a problem arises in that
WARequest doesn't implement #mimeType. I'd
propose
refactoring WAExternalFileLibrary>>#mimetypeForRequest: and
WAFileLibrary>>#mimetypeFor:
Does that seem a reasonable course of action?
Instead I implement
PRPierFrame>>#isFileRequest
| path |
path := self requestContext request url path.
^ (path notEmpty and: [ path last includes: $. ])
and modify PRPierFrame>>#notFound to read:
notFound
"This method is called whenever the current request cannot be resolved to a
structure."
self isFileRequest ifTrue: [ self requestContext respond: [: response |
response notFound ] ].
self context: (self context
structure: self context root
view: IZNotFoundView)
Anyone think this is a bad idea? If not I'll check it in.
