I don't know why you are getting an error.
But I think that this is one case where you should be writing `BUILD`
instead of `TWEAK`.
Note though that you can only have one `BUILD` or `TWEAK` per class.
---
Or maybe you want a multi method `new` instead?
multi method new ( :$native-object! ) {
samewith( x => $native-object.x, y => $native-object.y )
}
Assuming that `x` and `y` are actually public attributes you could pull
them out of the object in the signature.
multi method new ( :$native-object! (:$x, :$y) ) {
samewith( :$x, :$y )
}
If you need to throw out other public attributes, add `*%`
multi method new ( :$native-object! (:$x, :$y, *%) ) {
samewith( :$x, :$y )
}

Honestly I do not understand why you are passing in an already constructed
object, and I don't know anything about it either.
If you gave us answers for those two questions, we may be able to help you
better.
