An interesting use of catalyst

I recently saw, in some production code, a catalyst application being used as a consumer for ActiveMQ.


Basically leveraging the power of the despatch model of Catalyst and it's testing 'Request' method to make an enormous switch statement pointing incoming messages to a relevant controller on the basis of which queue it had come in on.


All this complicated shiny hiding inside an Apache 1 web app!


Now that's an interesting workflow to track down :-).
