catchAllRequest application property

[cebe]

I miss the catchAllRequest application property.
Is this an accidental omission, or is there a new way to imploement the catchAllRequest functionality?

We dropped many old features purposely to "clean up" the framework. If you want a feature back, could you please describe the reason why you want it back?

Since Yii1 does not support SEO friendly action names, in the past I used catchAllRequest to map /mycontroller/my-seo-friendly-action => Mycontroller::mySeoFriendlyAction().

But URL rules should possibly offer sufficient flexibility to cover this feature I guess..

@lubosdz Yii2 has native support to SEO friendly action names. Have you tried?

[lubosdz]

@andersonamuller That's cool, I didn't know that - now I found it in Controller::createAction() - so any action name with dash [-] or underscore [_] will be accepted in an URL's action name. Very nice.

One less reason to keep da catchAll*feature:-)

@lubosdz not really, it will be MyExampleController::actionAnotherExample mapped to url my-example/another-example.

@andersonamuller Uff, even better:-) thanx.
