[2.0] Reverse routes for subpackages of controllers?

[John Hicks]

While refactoring a small play 2.0 app, I moved some actions into
subpackages of controllers (controllers.postings) and added some
routes such as:

GET /postings/:id
controllers.postings.Jobs.show(id: Long)

This works fine, but controllers.routes only has ReverseRoutes for
classes in the main controllers package, not subpackages. Is there a
way to get this to work?

The routes are generated, but you're looking in the wrong package.
Try looking in controllers.postings.routes.Jobs instead of
controllers.routes.postings.Jobs.

Hope this helps,
Ben

I dont understand this convention. IMHO, routes should be generated in a root package "routes", then in a sub package with the same name as the controller package.

I agree Julien. The current packages seem backwards and non-intuitive
to me. Clearly John ran into this issue as well.

This works, thanks Ben. Was in a hurry last night.
