Re: [perl #36411] New form of 'setattribute' fails when there are multiple inheritance levels

Roger Browne (via RT) wrote:

Here's the inheritance hierarchy:

   PARENT_1  # adds attribute 'foo'
      ^
      |
   PARENT_2  # adds attribute 'foo', hiding the inherited one
      ^
      |
    CHILD    # adds attribute 'bar'

The first question is of course:

a) should we fully hide PARENT_1's "foo"
b) or should the attribute still be accessible as "PARENT_1\0foo"

or: how many attributes has CHILD?
